like hidden streams - whose quiet toneIs unheard in the garnish dayThat utter a music all their own.When the night dew falls, andthe lady moonLooks out to hear them play-I knew not half thy genste worth.Till grief drew all its music forthI would not look upon thy tearsFor I have thee in my heart,Just as thou went in those blessed yearsWhen we were both in too young for fearsThat we should ever past;And I would not aught should [?] the spell;The picture nursed so long and well !June 27.
