THE MOUNTAIN LAND OF DREAMS.
TO THE MISSES l.. AND N. H.


TO THE MISSES l.. AND n. H.
There's sense of subtle sadness
In the mist that wells the hills;
Theresa broken tone Of gadness
In the murmur OF the rills;
But deeper depth Of feeling
Fills the heart with sunny CLEANS,
There's wondrous balm of healing
In the mountain land ofdreams.
Though the skies are turning sober
And the woods are turning brown.
And the wind with hollow murmur
Swirls the leaves that shower down,
Still the footsteps fondly fingers
While the santing sunlight streams
Like a wand for fairy fingers,
In the mountain land of dreams.
Cease, oh heart, thy vain repining
All thy griefs are growing DID,
See where clouds with silver lining
Drift across the gates of gold
But the sun still brightly shining
Sheds his light IN golden streams,
Cease, oh heart thy vain repining
In The mountain land OF dreams.
Wait, oh soul, though we'er SO weary,
Time will ease thee oftny load,
Even on the deserts dreary
There's an end to every road
Never touch of mortal sadness
Where the light eternal beams.
There's promise gifts gladness
