yet for me, It is too much to look on thee.
128 SONGS OF THE AFFECTIONS.
Too much ! for all about thee spread, I feel the memory of the dead, And almost linger for the feet That never more my step shall meet.
The looks, the smiles, all vanish'd now, Follow me where thy roses blow ; The echoes of kind household- words Are with me 'midst thy singing birds.
Till my heart dies, it dies away In yearnings for what might not stay ; For love which ne'er deceived my trust, For all which went with " dust... to dust ! " What now is left me, but to raise From thee, lorn spot ! my spirit's gaze, To lift, through tears, my straining eye Up to my Father's house on high ?
THE DESERTED HOUSE, 129 Oh ! many are the mansions there, * But not in one hath grief a share ! No haunting shade from things gone by, May there o'ersweep the unchanging sky.
And they are there, whose long-loved mien In earthly home no more is seen ; Whose places, where they smiling sate, Are left unto us desolate.
We miss them when the board is spread ; We miss them when the prayer is said ; Upon our dreams their dying eyes In still and mournful fondness rise.
