The night is calm and sweet, Tho dying embora rustle-

There's silence in the street.

O how my heart feels lonely As the obill shadows fall;

But the spirits softly wbispor,

I hear their voices call:

Loved and Lost they sigh, And grief shall never die. Through weary, weary Time, Shall sound the dismal chime,

Loved and Lont!

Now sinks the failing lamp

All through the lagging night,

I hear the tender accente-

I see a figure bright,

Restore the golden hours-

* Sweet vision, linger! stay!

The Spirit softly whispers, And it dissolves away.

Loved and Lost, they sigh, And grief shall never die. All through the weary thins. Hark to the dismal chime,

Loved and Lost

So pass the heavy hours,

Ichide the long delay,, And the night so ohill and dark,

I wait the lingering day.

At last, the blissful summons,

What notes my heart enthrall;

I'm coming, I am ready!-

I hear their voices cali...
