There are two of
the name they have called thee,.
A name to heart ever
dear;
There are two whose sweet words have
enthralled me,
And for them I've a
smile and a tear.
The one hath an eye ever dreaming,
The other an eye full
of light;
But they both are with loveliness gleaming,
With beauty both
graceful and bright.
The one I shall cherish her ever,
Through sunshine, and
sorrow, and fears;
The other her memory never
Shall go out in the
darkness of years.
For the one I've a heart full of gladness
In return for the
love that she bears'
For the other a thought full of sadness--,
In return for the
friendship she wears.
