SENTIMENT. 



The dim lights 



Which man has set upon the way of life, 

 And called its pleasures, must by fiat fade, 

 And leave the beacon only that 's within! 

 O then for quiet, or the meaner home, 

 Where fashion reigns not, and the weary heart 

 Beats but to one, and answers pulse with pulse. 

 Then for the soul's own circle, never broken 

 By the rude foot that tramples on the flowers 

 Of all our best affections. 



Grenrillt Mtlltn. 



ANSWER. 



Where'er thou journey est, or whate'er thy care, 

 My heart shall follow, and my spirit share.
