  	       SIGNS OF THE HEART 

 1	    COME to me, joys of heaven! 
  	      Breathe through the summer air
 3	    A balm — the long-lost leaven
  	      Dissolving death, despair! 
  	        O little heart,
 6	        To me thou art
  	    A sign that never can depart. 

  	    Come to me, peace on earth! 
 9	      From out life's billowy sea, — 
  	    A wave of welcome birth, — 
  	      The Life that lives in Thee! 
12	        O Love divine,
  	        This heart of Thine
  	    Is all I need to comfort mine. 

15	    Come when the shadows fall,
  	      And night grows deeply dark;
  	    The barren brood, O call
18	      With song of morning lark;
  	        And from above,
  	        Dear heart of Love,
21	    Send us thy white-winged dove. 

  	      Pleasant View, Concord, N. H., 1899.
