SHE SLEEPS.
Where ciested rollers climb With hoarse and heavy boom, I hear their thunder rhyme Be'o.v my Lily's tomb. Where heavy rollers climb, And fling their force ashore, I hear their hollow rhyme. O, never, never more. Where silvered wavelets fall. And shimmer o cr the sand, I'll hear my Lily call, Oi touch her thrilling hand. I Beside a boundless sea ■ That -3oothn<s n, silent shore, My Lily waits foi me Not lost, but gono before. — Charles Oscar Palmes January, 1901.
