Th« river flowed with the light on 1U brent, And tho waves went eddying by, And the round rod sun wont down in the West, When my love’* loving lip* to my lip* were prest Under the evontng iky. Now weeping alone by tho river I stray, For my love has left me this many a day— Left me to droop and dio. As the river flowed on, the river flow* still, In ripple, and form, and spray, On by the church, and round by the hill. And under the *}uice of the old burnt mill, And out to the fading day ; Jiut I love it no more, for delight grows cold When tho song is sung and the tale is told, And the heart is given away. Oh, river, run far! Ob, river, run fast! Oh, weeds, float out to tho sea ! For the sun has gone down on my beautiful past, And tho hopes that like bread on the waters I cast, Dave drifted away like thee ! So tbe dream it is tied, and th* day it is done, And my lips will murmur th* name of one Who will never come hack to me 1 Ice Dealers. Ice! Ice ! Ice !
