HUGo's BECAUSE.
e.. E. c., from the French Of
Victor Hu9o.)

Because-eyery soul
Feels incessant desire
To give to some other
It's fragrance and 1re:
Because-alI things give,
Below and above,
Their roses and thorns
To that which they love;
Because-May gives music
To murmurlng streams.
And Night, to our pains.
Gives Nepenthe in dreams;
Because the wave
Falls asleep on the strand.
It trembles, and gives
A kiss to the land;-
For these reasons, my own,
My heart Is inclined
To give thee the best
I have In my mind
/ bring my sad thoughts,
My griefs and my fears;
Take these, as the earth takes
The nights shower Of tears.
OF my infinite longing,
Take. dearest, thy part;
Take my light and my shadow,
o child Of my heart!
Take the unalloyed trust
Which our intercourse blesses;
And take all my songs,
With their tender caresses.
Take my soul, whcih moves on
Without sail or oar,
But pointing TO thee
AS It's star eyermoTe.
And take, o my darling,
My precious. my own,
This heart, which would perish.
Its love being gone.
