EVENING.

The twilight falls, the picture fades;
My soul has drifted down the stream;
And now beneath the Palisades
I wonder, "Is it all a dream?"

Below the cliffs Manhattan's spires
Glint back the sunset's latest beam;
The bay is flecked with twinkling fires,
Or is it but "Van Kortlandt's dream"?
