. Mrs. Carrie Alice Thornton, née Esmond, born May 16th, 1846. Died January 2d, 1887 . HEX love is and sure to find Welcome from me. But when love bringsHeart ache or pang, Tears and such things,Love may go hang! If love can sighFor one alone,Well pleased am I To be that one. 67 WHEN LOVE IS KIND. But should I see Love given to roveTo two or three, Then, good-bye—Love !Love must, in short, Keep fond and true,Through good report, And evil, too. Else, here I swear,Young love may go, (For aught I care,)To / \ I SADNESS. Y soul is sick and lone, No social ties its lave entwine,A heart upon a desert thrownBeats not in solitude like mine;For though the pleasant sunlight shine It shows no form that I may own,And closed to me is friendships shrine,I am alone! I am alone!I am alone! I am alone! It is no joy for me To mask the fond and eager meeting Of friends whom absence pined, and see69 SADNESS. The love-lit eyes speak forth their greeting;For then a stilly voice repeating What oft hath woke the deepest moan,►Startles my heart and stays its beating, I am alone! I am alone! I am alone! I am alone! I have a heart. Id live And die for him whose worth I knew,But could not clasp his hand and give My full heart forth as talkers do—And they who loved me, the kind few, Believed me changed in heart and loneAnd left me—while it burned as true, To live alone! To live alone! To live alone! To live alone! 70
