GOOD-NIGHT.

THE forests and hills grow sombre

On the rim of the sunset bright :

A sweet bird calls from the branches,

"Shall I bid thy love 'Good-night'?"

Ah, birdie, how dull thy heart is!

Dream'st not of her heavenward flight?

But soar to her starry dwelling,

There give her my last "Good-night"!
