There Is mnny a tender love unseen,
That close in the bosom dwells,
As the tell couccals the flower'within
The larves of its I'uldiujj cclls.*
Tliero is many a treasured lore unknown,
That deep in the heart is laid.
Like a vein of gold, or precious stone,
Gancealcd from tho twiner's spade.
There is many à struggling love uutoM,

As the trembling lipj oannot unfold
The thoughts that we love the best.
There is ipnny a thrilling love nninng,
Unliuard as the spirit's svlng,
As the soii ^ on the harp tho' sweetly strung
May^sleep on the silent string.

Their light reflected on your heart
Will make its shadows all depart.
