SONG. At parting, Love, I left my heart In keeping safe with thee Nor do I claim it back again— But quickly let me see What interest it has borne since Sit down here on my knee- Our coin is kisses, pay me quick Here—one, two, or three. What-no more ? I fear a client, I see it in the wile Now lurking in these roguish eyes, Now playing in that smile. This glowing blush upon thy cheek Proclaims the truth to me. Why turn away, my dearest love ? Here—one, two, three. But, tell me, while I have been Thus wandering far astray, Has no one falsely come to snatch My dear-priz'd right away 1 Nay, smooth thy brow, I doubt thee not, Yet why so coy to mg ? Forgive, forgive this jealous heart; Here—one, two, three. PERDU. Concluding verse of the "SONNET TO THE MOON," which appeared in the Merlin of Dec. 15. Emblem of God's lov'd Church in sin's dark night, Midst our poor world's sad wreck, unsustained thou art; Rolling in splendid, but reflected light. Blest type thou gladdest many a sorrowing heart; Shine on in glory, sooth'd by thy calm power, Man for a time might dream of nought but bliss; View his short, life but as a troubled hour, And see by faith a happier world than this. Above him now thou shedd'st thine influence sweet, A little while thou'lt roll beneath his feet. K. C. An error of the transcriber occasioned the separation of this verse from the others.
