In thy hoars of social gladness, When the soul is full of glee, In thy lonely hours of sadness, Oh, then remember me : I shall think of thee at even, When the memories of the past, Like the pilgrim's dreams of heaven Come thronging wild and fast; I shall watch thy favorite planet In its pure unclouded flight, And shall lancy thou art gazing On the splendor of its light. astonished.
