BY MRS. O. B. I.
While on this sunny morn of. spring
The landscape fair delights my eyes,
To far off shores fond raomory roves,
And brighter scenes beforo me rise;
I see another April morn; !
Then tuneful birds did blithely sing,
And natuvo clad in vostmonts green, _
Hailpd, with iieyv joy, the lovely, spring.
The'so . plains with emerald verdure
bright, n . -‘i ' . 1
Bri|liant' with flowers of every hdej,

Yet'nbne so lovely to my ;’t,
And'whenoe the charm that tfius the
scene
So brightly on tho mocibry glows f
Wore nature’s green it tint more deep ?
A sweeter fragrance breathed the rose T
Yes, for the heart‘to all things lends /'
A deeper thrill, a holier tono,
And o’er the loveliest landscape throws
A touch of beauty not its own.
Two hands in one, with pressure soft,
Two heartsin ono did sweetly glide;
The maiden tohor husband turns, ‘ ,
The lover clasps hU blushing bride.
Those 'Solemn vows, those trusting
hearts, . . .. .4
Say, to that plighted troth still true.
Have fleeting years more olosely bound
Their souls with loVo fOreVer uo\v ?
Ay, as by stoYffi winds driven, (he oak
More flrnaly clasps the kindly soil,
Years have ofir hearts bat closer
pressed,
Twelve years of joy, of hope, of toil.
And years may pass, but dearer still
Shall grow the love of that spring time;
And, when earth’s night our,eyes shall
!!, close, . .
Stall burn and glow in realms sub
lime.

Is hut a spark of light divine',* i
