I think of th»e. my do est one,
I think of thee by day,
*Ti» then my thoughts revert to thee,
Wilt thou doubt me, oh, nayl
Dost thou think of the time we’ve spent
So happily together,
Canat thou, wilst thou e’er forget—
Daare«t cousin, never
Tas, often hive we wandered forth
On the beautiful hanks of White,
And there witrh those little birds,
A* they woo'd take th»ir flight.
O, yea. we had a selected spot
Far on a grassy mound.
And when missing from our quiet home,
It was there we could be found.
But n->w we are separated,
Thou art far a wav from m».
And oft I h «ve thought of the happy time
The* I have spent with thee
Th*n fare tbae well, couslo dear,
May heaven protect and guide,

Who oft wi lies th»e by her aide.
