Listen. DO you hear Il. Nellie?
Hear that low, sweet, soulful strain?
Like some lcng remembered music,
Tho its notes arc full Of pain.
All, it takes me back, dear Nellie.
Back to brighter, happier days
And hear that loved Cremons,
Where the tilvcry fountain playa
Hear again that heavily sweetness,
Heart and brain are all on fire!
While the burst OF music svels
As tho an angel struck the Tyre.
Nellie, dear. the light is fading
Can my love have been a sin?
Every sound in earth and heav'n
Was tuned to Ronads violin.
No! God knew we'd but each other.
Knew our lives could ne'er be one
Al! The light is growing brighter.
Nell, dear Nell, the song is done.
