Paged with dear legenda, winsomu with sweet ways! Whoso pagcs, filled with tender'st tiiurmarings, The psalm of life idyllic backward bringa Bewitchiil with memoriesl 0lvthn60old days! those trnest, purcet daysl Thoni life is sweeter for their lovelit grace, Whose heart but lingera near their boundariefl, Oonnintr thcm o'or with misty, yearning eyes, Aad for the f utnro prays!
