IRISH MELODIES.
Oft as summer closes, When thine eye reposes On its ling'ring roses.
Once so lov'd by thee, Think of her who wove them, Her who made thee love them,
Oh ! then remember me.
When, around thee dying, Autumn leaves are lying,
Oh ! then remember me. And, at night, when gazing On the gay hearth blazing,
Oh ! still remember me. Then should music, stealing All the soul of feeling, To thy heart appealing,
Draw one tear from thee ; Then let memory bring thee Strains I us'd to sing thee,—
Oh ! then remember me.
