Where is the flock that was given to thee, thy beautiful flock ? 



Jeremiah XXIII., 20 v. 



Where was the voice of Love — the soothing tone 



That whispers ever, like an angd's voice. 

 These are a sacred charge, in these alone 



Though Sorrow mark our path we may rejoice ? 

 Were all the secret springs of tenderness 



That dwell, mysterious, in the sternest soul, 

 Blackened with poison ? Did the heart's recess 



Loose every thrill of sympathy's controul ? 

 There is no name upon the human tongue 



To designate that vengeance which expent 

 Its fierceness on the lovely — gentle — young 



And with a mother's blood her infant's blent ; 

 Whilst pillowed on her breast the sinless child- 

 Dreaming of Heaven — in holy slumber smiled. Franz.
