batim copy of a poem coir, p,-;d by J‘ha II.
Surratt, while a sUiri-nt at St. Charles College,
Howard county, Maryland, June 3d. ItidO.
It was copied by his college chum, James
Hand, of Patterson, New Jersey, for his friend,
Samuel Morrison, of Indiana. It was written
by Surratt orriginally-in Mr. Hand s Album :
LIFE.
My youthful tears have all Ixten shed,
Those April dn ps which flow
Like 'pringh ts from the mountain’s head,
And in the sunshine glow.
The tears of youth have ceased to gush,
Like nectar from mine eyes,
And bitter ones instead I brush
Away with sad suipise.
The currents of my life grow deep,
As down the stream I float,
And all its torrents wildly sweep
Around my fragile boat.
Like some fair bird which wings its flight
Far np the azure sky,
lily spirit soars with proud delight,
More glowing lights to try.
Then round my soul are quickly thrown
Clouds black with sorrow’s gloom,
And suddenly the winds do moan
Around some loved one’s tomb.
Mv heart is draped in darkest night,
Mv little bark is tossed,
’Till in mv faithlessness and fright
1 cry, “ I sink ! I'm lost I”
From the Macon Citizen.
