Seite 98 - They cross the stream, and are gone for aye ; We may not sunder the veil apart That hides from our vision the gates of day. We only know that their barks no more May sail with us o'er life's stormy sea ; Yet somewhere, I know, on the unseen shore, They watch, and beckon, and wait for me.
Seite 98 - Over the river, the boatman pale Carried another — the household pet ; Her brown curls waved in the gentle gale — Darling Minnie!
Seite 32 - Let us gather up the sunbeams, Lying all around our path ; Let us keep the wheat and roses, Casting out the thorns and chaff...
