Music in the air, Mirror Friends SO we shall,
our column with the following sonnet "'' preface
Music
oft as we wander underneath the skies
We chance TO hear the sweet, familiar tonpue
OF that best heaven from which our being sprung
And rapurous thoughts within our hearts arise ps'
Once our native paradise
BY walls of precious jasper overhung:
And faroff pearly gates wide open swung
Floating along the streets of shining gold
We see our spirit knsmen robed in mirth
And strive own bright Dnions to unfold
Thinking ourselves within our land of birth
Listening to angel voices, of old,
Before we wandered to this owly earth
