Ah, no ! they cannot as before Breathe forth the simple prayer ! And those glazed eyes can now no more The inward joy declare ! Her little feet no more shall press The dew bespangled green, 128 MISCELLANEOUS POEMS. Nor Avith her mates in plaj-fulness In miniic dance be seen ! Pier place is vacant at the board ! The desolation there Seems as when wintry Avinds have roared. And left the forest bare ! HoAv can the mother now beguile The sluggish moving hoiu's ? No child to cheer her Avith a smile ...! To deck her room Avith floAA'ers ! And Avho the sire's return shall hail. Or meet him on the hill ? Shall lisp the newly-mastered tale. And learn afresh his Avill ! The little bird is sad and loAV, By other hands 'tis fed ! Though Imt a bird, it seems to kuoAV Its mistress too is do;id ! MISCELLANEOUS POEMS. 129 The playmates on the lost one call To fill the vacant part ! How heavily such trifles fall Upon a mother's heart ! Yet why should we, poor worms of dust ! The separation mourn ? Since to the gloomy gi-ave we must Soon after her be borne !
