REMEMBER ME.

Remember me, when far away
I journey thro' the world's wide waste;
Remember me at early day,
Or when the evening shadows haste.
When high the pensive moon appears,
And night, with all her starry train,
Gives rest to human hopes and fears,
Remember I alone complain.

Remember me whene'er you sigh,
Be it at midnight's silent hour;
Remember me, and think that I
Return thy sigh and feel its power.
Whene'er you think on there away,
Or when you bend the pious knee,
Or when your thoughts to pleasure stray,
O then, dear maid, remember me.


FINIS.
