TWO LOVERS.
Two lovers by a moes grown spring **
They loanod soft cheeke together there, Mingled the dark and sunny hair, And heard the wooing thrushes aing,
...0, buddinů time!
O, love's best prime!
Two wedded fram the portal stopt; The bells male happy carolings, The dir was soft na fanning wings, White petals on the pathway swept,
O, pure-eyed bride! O, tender bride!
Two faces o'er a cradle beat ;... tra
Two hands above the hond were locked, These pressed each other while they
rocked;
There watched a life that love had sout:
O, Solema bour!
O, hidden power!
Two parents by the evening fire;
The red light shone about their knees, On hoads that rose by slow degroom,
Like bude upon the lily spire.
O, patient life!
O, tander strife
The two still sat together there;
The red light shone about their knees;
But all the heade, by slow degroes, Had gone and bft the lonely pair,
O, voyage fast!
O, vanished past!
The rod light shone about the flour,
And made the space between them wide They draw their chairs up side by side Their pale cheeke joined, and asid * Quce
more!
O, memories! O, past that is!
