81 Oh. would 4 were the Lowry Breeze
a1,hat steals about thy feet,
81 Nc cool ana lead them on their way
10 some moss-fringed retreatl
And would were the soft June light
THAT laves thy brow and lips,
And bids thine eyes In fancy gaze,
Where sail joys rose-cruwned ships!
q And would be. thy Heart to ease,
The ecstasy Of sony,
Whose rhythmic wings watt thee where
Comes neither wrath nor wrong
And + would be the angel that
Shall take from thee all stain
OF toll and care And wretchedness
Asd Deaths cup for thee drain!
And would 4 were the violets
& That Ger thy dreamless sleep.
Shall In mute. fragrant faithfulness,
Their starlit vigil keep.
