O YE VOICES GONE.*[1]




Oh! ye voices gone,
    Sounds of other years!
Hush that haunting tone,
    Melt me not to tears!
All around forget,
    All who loved you well,
Yet, sweet voices, yet
    O'er my soul ye swell.

With the winds of spring,
    With the breath of flowers,
Floating back, ye bring
    Thoughts of vanished hours.
