GLENCOE.


Lay by the harp, sing not that song,
    Although so very sweet;
It is a song of other years,
    For thee and me unmeet.

Thy head is pillowed on my arm,
    Thy heart beats close to mine;
Methinks it were unjust to heaven,
    If we should now repine.

I must not weep, you must not sing
    That thrilling song again,—
