AND WOMAN’S INTERESTS
TO MISS BESSIE ABOTT.
Tou came to us when the flirtatious
May
■ Was milling welcome to the waking
June,
When every Held with talreat flower*
waa gay,
And all the air with sweetest sound*
attune;
Tour beauty made the envious roaea
blush.
Tour lips poured forth a magic mel
ody.
Which made the startled forest song
sters hush.
That they might listen to Its rivalry;
And then you left us, but our griefs
alloy.
That still can bring to us a gleam of
cheer,
Is. that we knew even so brief a Joy,
And. that your memory will linger
here. * ,
To mingle ever, through the passing
hours.
With song of birds and fragrance of
sweet flowers. _
