Your heart so par* so lie* from sin Stamps all that’s nobis tliar*. I think von nust be falter than She, of Annie lAuris’e fame. Were £ the herd who sang her praise I'd immortalize yoac mane. Your brow is like the snow drift Un ihs brow of Alpine peaks, All blushing with the rosy dawn Like the rose* ou your cheeks. Tbo clover blossoms love you Aud kiss your fairy fast; J he birds delight to charm you And their sweetest notes repeat; Here the flowers more lovely seem, More brilliant iu their hue. More generous with their fragrance As if they’d rival you, Dispensing happiness ou all. Who chance to meet you hare, With loving acts and words of cheer Which drives away dull care. Thu* mused a gallant handsome youth Ol proud majestic mica, Who drank in all tbe loveliness That gleamed upon the sceus.
