Song Of Long AGO.


Song Of Long Ago.
You sing ME a; song of the long ago
And | turn my face from the sunset
glow
To the crimson blush Of the tremb-
ling dawn !,
Of the days Of tho wondrous days
agone;
And the song YOU sing is a song I'M
heard.
For my heart leaps up at a whisper
cd word
That is echoed now from the melody
Still sung In the land of the used-to-
And I sit and gaze through my half
closed Eyes
At the oldcn hills and the oldcn
skies
at the olden hills that were high. SO
high
That they seemed to reach to the
bending sky;
So high they were that at night they
The paths of the stars as adown they
,crept.
And they stood as shelter round
about
From the hungry world that was bar
red without.
And / sec again as though through a
mist
The Redeemed rose that the dew had
kissed,
And the apple blooms on the swaying
4 trees
And I hear the chant Of the humnling
bees
AS they staggered home from the
lowered vine
With the drunken Joy of the honey
vine:
where the h~OllNhocks stood guard in
state
You sing me a song of the long ago
And you sing Of things that you can
not know:
OF the laughing brook and the mead
Ows green,
And the country road that was white
and clean,
OF the little house with its open door
And the sunshine dancing across the
floor
And the morning glories that climbed
the wall.
And the scent. of the roses " all.
