FLORA’S ALBUM. 

Pride of China. 
DISSENSION. 
We have been friends together 
In sunshine and in shade, 
Since first beneath the chestnut trees 
In infancy we played. 
But coldness dwells within thy heart, 
A cloud is on thy brow; 
We have been friends together, — 
Shall a light word part us now ? 
We have been gay together ; 
We have laughed at little jests ; 
For the fount of hope was gushing 
Warm and joyous in our breasts. 
But laughter now hath fled thy lip, * 
And sullen glooms thy brow ; 
We have been gay together, — 
Shall a light word part us now ? - 
We have been sad together, 
We have wept with bitter tears, 
O’er the grass-grown graves, where slumbered 
The hopes of early years. 
The voices which are silent there 
Would bid thee clear thy brow: 
We have been sad together, — 
Oh! what shall part us now ? 
Hon. Mrs. Norron.
