In MenlOriaIn

OF the dear little boy, Harry Z Russell, VIII,
died one year ago.
He giveth His beloved sleep"
Through all the years that come and go,
Throughout each day and night,
My heart still yearnS for the babe that fell
Asleep by the gates of light.
Shrined away in my memory
Is lifeS one perfect thing
The love that caused no sorrow,
The love that left no sting.
Oft i'll the gathering shadows
He steals softly back from the dead;
In fancy on my aching heart
He leans his little head.
And hear his sweet Voice calling
From the shudowy far-away,
And stretch my arm in ycarnin.
In the gloom of the twilight gray.
With thongs of pain and sorrow
| am bound and laid aside,
With aching heart and throbbing brain,
And the world Mt its low ebb tide.
The road is hard and rough to climb,
And all that my eyes can see
Is the vacant space where the vanished face
OF my darling used to he.
