V AFTER BATTLE.
(Adapted from the Gaelic.) If only the dead could hear, He would mate room for mc; If I were laid beside my love, Oh, happy his sleep would be! Dark man who dlggest the tomb To hide from mc mine own, X-et it not be too narrow made, 'Tis not for one alone. For if only the dead could speak, Low would he call to mc, "Love, if I lived and thou wert here. Oh, I iwouW die fox thee!" * MP]' '■• ----<•—---; H?,.^**'
