There’s a magical isle in the river of Time, Where softest of echoes are straying, And the air is as sweet as a musical chime, Or the e.Yquisite breath of a troprical clime, When Juno with the roses are straying ’Tis there Memory dwells with her golden hue, And music forever flowing, While the low-murmured tones that tremblii iweeten it too, len blowing. There are shadowy halls in the fniry-like isle, Where pictures of beauty are gleaming, Yet the light of their eyes, with their sweet sunny smile, Only ’round the heart, with a ’wildering wile, And leaves tis to know ’its b u t dreaming. And the name of this isle is the Beautiful Past, And we bury old treasures all there. There are beings of beauty, too lovely to There are hosoms of snow, with dust o’er There are tresses and ringlets of hair. There are fragments of song, only memory And the ■words of a dear mother’s There’s a harp long imswopit, and out strings, There are flowers all withered, and letters and 1 Chamois Skins, Towels and Mitteng for the hath.
