LILIES.
or The Tribune:

Written for The Tribune:
Lilies-white lilies, ye calm my soul
For the waters are wild, and the billows roll
And love and trust have drifted away
Like the distant sail on the breast Of the bay
In a moment more twill have drited from sight,
And be hidden away in the waste OF night!
And then ye came with your pure sweet gaze,
With your dainty, winsome, loving ways
And crept like a dear dream into my heart,
could not bear to send thee apart
For the fragrance that floats on your balmy
breath
To me whispers "peace" tho the world calls
il death.
