A Grave Confession. I went to where my beloved slept, The sleep that awakens not, My heart felt breaking, and I wept Hot tears, on the sacred spot.

And soon again, I went to his grave, With flowers to strew about,

The ‘fowers in life he used to crave, Which he recognized, no doubt.

Again I sought the all-hallowed ground, | And planted his little plot

With flowers, like those I saw around, And his loved forget-me-not.

When next I went it was chill and cold, » "Twas my duty though, to go,

But I found no flowers in the mold, "Twas only a drift of snow,

So I left the place, with good intent, To tix it up in the spring, But ‘twas that winter, another gent, Turned up, with a wedding ring. RETSOAB,
