" Tho liouse is old, the-trees are bare, Moonless abovp lianas tlio twilight s dome But what on earth is half so doar. So longed for as the hearth of home ? " Tlie mnte lird sitting on tlio stone, The dank moss dripplins from the wall, The thorn-trpes gaunt, the walks o'ergrown - I love them - how I love thcm all ! " A little. and a lone green lane, Tliat opens on a common wide ; A distant, dreary, dim-blue chain Of mountains circling every side. " A heaven so clear, an earth so calm, So sweet, so soft, so hushed an air ; And deep'ning still the dreain-like cliarm, Wild-moor sheep feeding ereryv.here. "That was the scène. I knew it well, I knevv the turfy pathway's sweep, That. winding o'er each billowy swell, Marked out the tracks of wandeling sheep.'
