: Of spirits bright above;
A heart had strayed its pathway high

Once throbbed in life a pure .
'As a star in heaven's mild blue,

In it, was stored the pure and good,
There gifts of heaven lay; -;.
A bower it was amid the wood,
Where Love dwelt all the day.
It was a flower in beauty bora
To cheer the passer-by;
A budding rose without a thorn ,
With fragrance from on high., -It
was a beauteous bird of song
, , So sweetly trilled its lay, . ,
', And. amid earths busy throng
-I , E'er poured its roundelay. ...
A heart is lost, nor can be found
Recorded in the Hook of Life, ,,,
'Tislostnmid the dizzy round
Of the world's tumultuous strife.
A heart lost? oh! ca it be

Amid the snares of earth,
And ou the wave of Time be toss'd

A light to wanderers given; , .'

think how changed he had become ; then
she was angry at herself for sighing.
Kate was accordingly as wayward as he
