Paris conservatory are at the back OF

TO SONG.
Here shall remain all tears for lovely
things
And here enshrined the longing Of
great hearts.
Caught on a Tyre whence waking
wonder starts,
To mount afar upon immortal wings.
Here shall be treasured tender wonder

The faintest whisper that the soul
imparts
All silent secrets in all lonely parts
Where Nature murmurs Of her hidden
springs.
D Magic Of a Song!-here loneliness.
May sleep unhindered Of lies mortal
And noble things stand towering
Ger the tide;
Here mid the years, untouched by time
or stress,
Shall weep on every wind that stirs
The music Of a voice that never
