Yet life, with all its mystery and pain,
Remaineth sweet if love Ic at the
core;
And even to the heart that pleads in
vain,
A time shall come when it shall ache
no more,
A day will dawn at last
When no cloud shall overcast
The tenderness and splendor
OF the passion of the past
And the patient hearts that wait
In silence at the gate.
Wi,l feel upon their longing lips
The kiss OF love. tho late
