Perhaps he loved-was sighted by Jew

And laughed him from her presence all

At morn. when nights deep shadows melt
away,
And dawn with rosy fingers draws the
curtains folds apart
To usher in the day. think OF you. dear
heart.
I think Of you, dear heart, when song OF
bird
Beside the ripping meadow brook Is heard;
In all sweet sights ard sounds you seem to
have part,
What wonder that think OF you. dear
heart
When twilight shadows veil the glowing
west
And feathered songster seeks his wood
land nest,
In the soft hush that drifts from twilight
land,
hear your voice. feel your clasping
hand
There's not a bee that from the loweret
springs
But bears a message on his perfurned
wings.
There's not a star that decks the abysmal
blue
That smiles not brighter when think Of
you.
Some sure reflection Of the love divine
May in the hearts Of errinS mortals shine
Oh. love divine, SO tender. strong and true.
l feel its power who1-'er think of you.
