And so we played and laughed and hid Until the dew was falling, And, through the dusk, the katydid Her own glad name was calling.
Then came the quiet homeward walk, Through paths that crossed the meadows ; The childish hopes and happy talk, The years leave in the shadows ; The little hand clasped tight in hand, Sweet girl, glad boy together ; The twilight dreaming o'er the land, Soft touching hill and heather.
WHEX I WAS A CHILD.
Methinks again I see the face Of her who walked beside me, The so
...ft light crowns the brow of grace, A star of peace to guide me. I see again the soft blue eyes, The silken ringlets blowing ; I hear the soothing voice arise Like rills in summer flowing; The little head thrown back, the form So light, the laugh so ringing ; The small brown hand in mine, as warm As a rose in sunshine springing. Oh I give me back my playmate's love, Her saintly face so shining Dear God ! she dwells with Thee above While I am here repining. 'Tis better so, 'tis better so, No sins to be forgiven When she was a child, sweet years ago, She found the way to Heaven.
