Syrian Enpraeiiow
(By 8AM THOMAS)
Full of pleasure waa my walk
When a vvlee rang in my ear;
From a lonely grove, It broke.
And I heard theae words an clear.
“Sweet and 'air sing nr to ileep,
Let my heart rejoice In Thee
Love bo mine, thy promiae keep
Though 1 go beyond the aea."
All the tree* have feit the attain .
Clapping haada and wooing high
E’en the flooren on the plain
Kleced each other with a sigh
It waa not a fairy land.
It wae not an Angel’e tongue,
It waa act the chirping band.
It waa but a maidnn'i song
rrcpii^ iron oriunq m wmc.
There a maiden stood in white,
'j reeian art though wondroui he.
Failed ta give a face to hrigM.
And the Venua of their time
Shrink* to nothing when compared
Beauty gives what time and clime.
To the world ia (tore, have spared.
Yet behind this beaaty liaa
Something that la deeper still
‘Neath the magic of bar eyei
I* a heart that paaaioiu fill.
Oh tha heart: That noble abnno
When all virtue* grow and thrive'
Bdni of Wya and lev* divine
In whoa* holy place they live.
Calm stood I near for awhile
Then I thus a'ldrcaacd the maid:
“Angel thou art heaven'* nail*,
Speak. If thou art tike u» made.”
>• . * . «
“Tell me aweet in aign or more
With thy lovalit eyas or tongue.
Pour thy voice any pretty bird
Pour It on my been In *ong."_
“Fairy cyea upon me thine.
Soar ia Beaaty** sky my dove.
Pour thy mrkxUea *tia win#,
fill my tup with burning love.”
Further then her voice again.
Rang through vul* and valloy groan.
While I board I looked in vain,
But nobody could be seen.
‘Sweet and fair ting me to deep,
bet my heart rejoice ia the*.
boveSe aaln* thy promt*, keep,
rheugh I go beyond the tee."
‘Think tf au when I am gone,
• shall he forever true.
Non# i* faithful, Oh there** none,
tn this world but Cod and you."
