TWENTY YEARS AGO.
I met a "girl the other day,
Some twelve years old, or so,
The image of a nymph I loved
Some twenty years ago.
The blushing check, the sparkling eye,
The hair of raven flow,-
Ah, how they set my heart a-blaze
Some twenty years ago!
1 spoke—-her answer did not much
Of wit or wisdom show-
Butitlius the lovely Mary talked
Some twenty years ago.
What! could a shallow girl like this
My heart in tumult throw?
I must have been a little green
Some twenty years ago!
I’ve met the lovely Mary since-
ller charms have vanished though-
]-Ier wit and wisdom ure—-the same
As twenty years ago!
I looked upon her faded cheek,
Unlit my feelings flow ;
And thank her that she scorned my love
Some twenty years ago!
Fond boy ! who now would gladly die
To please ome simpering Miss-
God knows what thou wilt think of her
Some twenty years from this! N.
