For the voice of trio departed
Is borne upon the. breeze.
''That solemn voice ! it mingles with
Each free and careless strain ;
I scarce can think Earth's minstrelsy
Will cheer my heart 'again,
The melodv of S immer w aves,
The thriiliup notes of birds,
- Can never be so duar to me,
As their leinombered winds.
I sometimes dream their pleasant smiles
Still on me sweetly fall ;
Their tones of love I faintly hear
My name in sadness call.
I know that they are happy
With their angel-plumage on,
But my heart is very desolate
To think that they are gone !"
