^E l A, gentle Meta, \Yhen the day was done, Sat upon the doorsteps, Singing, one by one, Simple cradle lullabies, Tinkling like the rill, While the sun was sinking Underneath the hill.
Happy little Meta Knew not that so soon, Over the cedar groves, Up would rise the moon ; That the stars would twinkle Merrily and bright, While her lips were murmuring, Lovingly, " Good-night. " So our merry Meta, When the sun had set, And the clover meadows With the dews were wet, 181 1 82 DOMESTIC.
On her couc...h lay sleeping As the lilies sleep, When, above the valleys, Stars their vigils keep.
Ah, dear little Meta !
Who that evening knew, As the Night her mantle Round the wide world drew. That a deeper shadow On our hearts would lie. When the stars of morning Faded from the sky?
Who, of all that loved thee.
Knew one vacant chair Now would wait thy presence At the hour of prayer ; That our feet would linger Round the open door, Waiting for thy coming, Coming, nevermore?
Meta, angel Meta !
Waiting still we stand, Weary, oh, how weary !
