Passing of the Old Tear
OLD Year; tonight our
And parting we shall
Who on the journey fc
And all their joys
TOO late'Co^lhange what now is past;
And yet we hurried on too fast
Along the pathway of your days. ^
Where New Years come, but no
year stay?.

me grief,
And confidence, and unbelief;
And now, when I their value know,
The journey ends, and you must go.
Au
LL through the future still untried
New Years will travel by my aide.
And they perhaps be friendly, too,
But 1 shall still remember you.
\\/e had our secrets, you anciT?
7 T I cannot bear to say "Good-bye!'1
So as you vanish from my sight
rn softly whisper just "Good^ni^ht!**
