DEAR OLD SONGS
OM song-' they ring upon the brain.
Like whisper? from the far-off spheres,
An 1 with their thrilling spell revive
The garnered love of by-gone years.
What though beneath the sod th»y lie,
That pale array of honored dead ;
In hues immortal round the heart,
Still, still a hallowed beam they shed.
Old songs ! I never guessed how large
A space was in this heart of mine,
Till, one dull eve, by channe I found
A well-worn book, whose every line
Come back to me as clear as though
But yesterday I’d laid it down,
And there 1 found in the wishcd-for clue
That spoke of days forever flown.
Oh, when amid the world of doubts,
Of light and shade in which we stray,
We seek some charm by which to drive
Some temporary grief away,
Let those who love such pleasures court
The favorites who entrance the throng
For me, I’ll find a homelier scenp,
And lull me with some dear old song.
