A CANADIAN EXILE.
23

"If you see my country,
That dear, unhappy land,

"Tell every loving friend
That I would clasp his hand.

"O past days of delight,
I think of you in vain,

"And my best loved country
I ne'er shall see again!

"But in my dying hour,
Wherever I may be,

"O Canada, my home,
Mine eyes shall turn to thee!"
