Lilly Lee.

BY ALICE CAREY,

I did love thee, Lilly Lee. As the petrol loves the sea, As the wild bee loves the thyme, As the poet loves the rhyme, As the blossom loves the dew— But the angels loved thee too.

Once when twilight's dying head Press'd her golden-sheeted bed. And the silent stare drew near, White and tremulous with fear— While the night's repelling frown, Strangled the young -zephyr down, Told I all my love to thee— Hoping, fearing, Lilly Lee.

Fluttering then her gentle breast: With a troubled sweet unrest, Like a bird too near the net, Which the fowler's hand hath set But her mournful eyes the while, And her spirit-speaking smile, Told me, love could not depart Death's pale artow from the heart.

Hushing from that very day. Passion pleading to have sway— Folding close her little hand, Watched I with her till the sand Crumbling from beneath her tread, Lowered he softly to the dead. Where in death she waits for me, Sweetest, dearest Lilly Lee,

As the chased hjart loves the wave As blind silence loves the grave, As the penitent loves the prayer, As the passion loves despair, Loved I, and still love I thee, Angel stolen Lilly Lee.
