REMEMBRANCE.
I I seem to hear, as in a dreim, The music of the tea ; Tbe ri;>pling wavea a sadness bring, Tho' 3weet their melody ; 3?or they but lay upoa my heart fA deep and sore regret , And while they come and touch me thus I never can forgot. All that ha>. been, all that is near, Ib blended in their song — All of <he beautiful and true, Life's t-orrow and Life's wrong ; Sighing upon the silent saud, Breaking low at my feet, Caressingly they breathe to me A story sad tho' sweet. And now hhr soothing voice I hear, Her dear sweet'face I see ; Once more I feel the tender power Of loving sympathy. And tho' our lives lie far aparr, In thought our hearts have met— • O love cf mine, so lost to me, I never can lotget ! Outram, March 18. —M.
