WIIITTIESL 'How thralls, once more, the lengthening awn, Of memory at the thought of thee l Old hopes which long iri dust have bin, . Old dreams come thronging back again, • • ' And boyhood lives in me ; • I feel its glow upon my cheek, Its fullness of the heart is mine, As when I learned to hear thee speak, Clt *sell my doubtful eyes to thine, I Lear again thy low replies, I feel thine arm within my own, And timidly again uprise The hinzM lids of hazel eyes With soft, brown tresses overblown, And memories of sweet summer eves, Of moonlit wave and willowy way, Of stars and flowers, and dewy. leaves, Of smiles and tears more sweet than they. Ere this, thy quiet eye bath smiled, My picture of thy youth to see, •When Ulf a woman, half a child, Thy very artlessness beguiled, And folly's self seemed wise in me ; , I too can smile, when o'er that hour, The lights of memory backward stream, Yet feel the while that manhood's power Is vainer than my boyhood's slream. Years have passed on and left their trace Of graver care and deeper thought, And unto me the calm, cold face Of manlnnd,'and to thee the grace Of woman's pensive beauty brought. On life's rough blast ; for blaine and praise, The schoolboy's name has widely down ; Thine, in the green and quiet ways Of amotskrusive goodness known. And wider yet, in thoisglit and deed, Our still diverging paths incline; Thine, the Genevan's sternest creed; While answers to my spirit's need , The Yorkshire peasanessimple line; For thee, the priestly rite and prayer, And holy day and solemn psalm; For me, the silent reverence, where My brethren gather, slow and calm. Yet bath thy sfuit left on me An impress Time has not worn out, And something of myself in tkee,' And shadow from the past, I see Lingering e'en thy way-about ; Not lightly can the heart unlearn That lesson of its better hours, • Nor yet has Time's dull footstep worn To common dust that path of flowers.
