And I feel as a desolate one, The remembrance of thee will not wear,
Fa^r land while I. gaze upon thee] Fike the mist on thy mountains, away;
No more slhall that" sweet setting sun" Or, as temples, that gTandeur will rear,
I'lumine those Tallies for me! To glitter and glance tor a day.
Ycl bright may yo«r blossoming be, But as towers are-- embedded for aye,
And soft be the gtish of your streams! It shall stand on the toy of my heart,
O .' still in my slumbers will ye And o'er my fond fancy hold sway,
He the land of iny loveliest dreams. "While memory her joys shall impart.
