LOVE’S T O KE N-FLO WERS. 
15 
When men are taught by thee to own^ 
The sovereignty of mind, 
Then think of one who looks on thee 
With more than woman’s pride, 
And glories in the thought that she 
Has been thy spirit’s bride.

“ My best days are past." 
My locks still wear their sunny brown, 
M y cheek, unfurrowed, glows with health, 
And though life’s sands are running down, 
The miser mind still guards its wealth. 
Mine eye is bright, though steeped in tears, 
My limbs with vigoi still are strung, 
And measuring life by strength, not years, 
I feel my heart, my heart is young !
