SONGS OF THE AFFECTIONS.


"Cheer, then, beloved! on whose meek brow is set
    Our mother's image—in whose voice a tone,
A faint sweet sound of hers is lingering yet,
    An echo of our childhood's music gone;—
Cheer thee! thy Sister's heart and faith are high;
Our path is one—with thee I live and die!"
