INTERLUDES.
A noble nature, and a soul of truth—
Direct—but feminine in every trait;
The sunshine, and the passion-power of youth;
The thoughtfulness of woman's high estate—
Are thine, Denise.

My heart, and all that ever can be mine;
My life, my hopes—whatever is divine
Within my nature; and whate'er demands
A higher something, and a loftier shrine—
Yea; and the love that waits till death, and stands
Unchanging where the gates of Heaven shine
Are thine, Denise.
