MTSC ELLA IVIES. 



From ibe Boston Statesman. 



/ remember, I remember, 

 Tliepuice where 1 was bom. — T. Hooi^. 

 My birih place! Oh my bifth place. 



The house be:iealh the hill ; 

 The moss upon the sloping roof, 



ThelHcklingnriherill, 

 'An'l the artiliciel water fall, 

 Thai turned my little mill. 



M^ birth-p^ace! with its spreading tree. 



lis parh»ur wiiiflnws low, 

 The door which opened to the south, 



Through which I used to ?o : 

 And the creeper climbing to the top 



And hanging over so ! 



1 dreamed ol it — my biiih-placc — 



And went again to see 

 The moss upon its sloping roof, 



The shadow of its tree — 

 .\l3s ! that only in my dream 



That pleasant sight should be. 



Decaj- had left it desolate. 



Its pleasanl tree was gone j 

 The mos.sy root had fallen in, 



The rose was overgrown ; 

 Vntl the creeper ^anyled with the weeds, 



Across the stepping stone. 



The bank on which 1 knelt to drink. 



The grass T used to-fling 

 5Ij,' satchel and my cap upon, 



\AVre sere and withering ; 

 And the trunk was broke that led away 



The water from the spring. 



I could not pass the broken door. 



And sadly 'urned to stra}' 

 Where leaped my little water fall, 



Bui that was swept awa}" ; 

 And the soft green meadow had been ploughed 



In which I used to play. 



Sly bnlh-place '. Oh, my birth-place, 

 I never more^ay see. 



The happy hours my childhood saw- 

 Beneath your spreading tree ! 



f would I were as innocent 

 As then 1 used to be.
