W* jat otter grief can last so long ? Tl .o Spring makes basto with step elate Y >ur life and beauty to renew ! > She even bids the roses wait, And gives her first sweet care to you. The welcome red-breast fold Ms wing To pour for you his freshest strain ; To yen the earliest blue-birds sing. Till all your light seeinß thrill again. The spartow trills his wedding song, And trusts his tender brood t.n you, Fair flowing vines the Summer long, With clasp and kiss your beauty woo. The sunshine drapes your limbs with light, The rain braids diamonds in your hair, The breeze makes love to you at night— Yet still you droop and still despair. Beneath your boughs at fall of dew, By lovers' lips is softly told The tale that all the ages through Has kopt the world from going old. But still, though April’s bud unfold, Or Summer sees the earth aleaf, Or Autumn prauks your robes with.gold, You *-way and sigh in graceful grief. Mcum on forever, unconsoled. And keep your secret, faithful tree ! No heart iu all the world can hold A sweeter grace than constancy. Snuff & Tobacco.
