MEMORIES

WHEN evening shadows come, And cast fantastic formsO'er wooded hill and dale And silv'ry lake forlorn:-Where gentle zephyrs sigh And to night winds give way:-Their murm'ring echoes tell The death of closing day:-When peace and quiet reign At mid-night's lonely hour:-Oh, when the soul does claim New strength from higher Power:-When all fond hope has fled And love within is dead:-Will you remember me, In lonely days to be,Dream o'er the happy past, Regret it could not last.
