Still I dream’d not, angel sister!

’Twas my last sweet walk with thee.

Evergreens were spreading o’er us,

With their cool embow’ring shade;

Hoary mosses waved before us,

And a graceful drapery made:

While the gliding waters bore us

Many a tuneful serenade.

Pearly tears, in silence starting,

Told the heart’s deep seated gloom,
