A SLUMBER SONG.
gup. mv beloved. To sleep and dream is best.
The night to us is peace, the day unrest,
vi,r day, while parted, brings us hut pain;
/j dreams we live the dear past o’er a,.a : .n.
We sverp not in ov.r sleep;
Our fears arc for the day,
Which smiles, while 1 but weep,
For tfiou art far away.
Unshed be (he voices of the garish day,
Its frets and cates and sorrows swept array;
forgotten quite the interval of years
Since last tve met, with all their bitter tear*.
Sleep, love. To dr am Is best,
Our v.alding is but pain;
In sleep alone we rest
And live the pest ajain.
fleep, my dear love, and be thy dreams of met
Waking or sleeping, I still think of thee.
r.Mt dreams make present time of all the past;
Ute night restores thee—Would toy dreams might
last I
Dream, <i,ar, till the day breaks
And earthly shadows dee,
' Where morn to grief ne’er wake*
And I be one with thee.
