The Song of a Smile. BY F. GAINES, '12.
I. A smile across your face once stole, And bro't a song into ~ heart, Whose music is the counterpart · Of melodies of YOUI'.. own soul.
II. A wordless little song, 'tis true, Yet bears me that you understand Nor _more of song could I demand Than just one verse of faith from you. III, How wearily the path I've trod, How in life's race my strength is spent The world knows not. I am content If Known alone to you and God.
IV. The music's chanted tenderly, The strains are plaintive now and low Yet evermore the song doth flow And, in the heart, must deathless be.
