Who Wins His Love.

Who wins his love shall lose her;
Who loses her shall gain;
For still the spirit woos her,
y soul without 4 stain;
And men'ry still pursues her
With longings not in vain.
He loses her who gains her.
Who watches. day by day.
The dust of time that stains her.
The Griefs that leaves her gray.
The flesh that yet enchains her
Whose grace hath passed away.
Oh. happier he who gains not
The love SOME seems to gain:
The joy that custom stains not
Shall still with him remain;
The loveiiness that wanes not,
The love that ne'er can wane.
In dreams she grows not older,
The land of dreams among:
Though all the world NAN colder.
Though all the sorgs be sung:
In dreams doth he behold her,
Still fair and kind AID young.

The EgOtistic Lover.

1 ne'er could any luster see
In eyes that would not look at me:
l zee saw nectar on a lip.
Eut where my own did hope It sip.
Has the maid who seeks my heart
Checks of rose untouched by art?
1 will own their color true,
When yielding bushes aid their hu,
Is her hand so soft and pure?
/ must press it. to be sure;
Nor can l be certain then.
Till it grateful press again,
Must I with attentive eye
Watch the heaving bosom sigh?
1 will do so-when 1 e
That heaving bosom sigh for me.
