OCCASIONAL VERSES.
The instrument she left is still !
Her harp she ttines above, Where she will learn her Maker's will, And sing her Saviour's love.
And though no more her voice so sweet, Nor instrument, I hear, I hope in heaven my child to meet.
And join our voices there.
She loved o'er hill and dale to rove, And pluck the blossoms wild : The crystal streamlet, too, she loved ; For she was Nature's child.
But now she's gone — forever gone !
Her life — how short the span !
But I've another litt...le one, I'll call her Laura Ann.
And when I hear her sisters call That dear and well-known name, The sweet delusion I'll embrace, And think it is the same.
And should this little darling be What Laura Ann has been.
Her eye as mild, her voice as sweet, Then I shall smile again.
But ah, alas ! these visions wild I ne'er can realize ; For still I feel I've lost my child — The sweet delusion flies.
Colonnade Row, Boston, i8i6.
OCCASIONAL VKRSKS.
ON HEARING MY BIRD SING IN WINTER.
Sweet bird, who late throughout the day, Hast silent been so long ; What now calls forth thy cheering lay ?
