THE CHAM BEERS or THE HEART

There are chambers In the human heart,
Where We bestow our treasures rare
Where memories sweet and thoughts so
dear.
Are hidden from tho worlds rude stare.
And no one knows the wealth WI own.
All stowe away and safely hid.
Nor how we feast In them alone.
And no one to cur banquet bid.
And there are graves within the heart
A silent city of the dead"
Ard sometimes In the silent night.
Among those graves alone We tread.
Alone. for sacred II the spot.
And little would the cold world care
That here we buried hopes and joys.
And here we knelt In meek dispair.
And In the heart are hopes,
That Ill our lives with sweet. glad
dreams.
And life is ever more 10 us
Than 10 the outside world II seems.

The treasures we have slowed away,

on every dark and dreary lay,
