I saw thee weep

I saw thee’weep

the big bright tear

Came over that eve of blue

And then me thought it did appear

A violet dropping dew

I saw thee’ smile

the sapphire’s blaze

Beside thee’ceased to shine

It could not match the living rays

That filld’that glance of thine

As clouds from yonder sun receive

A deep and mellow dye

Which scarce the shade of coming eve

Can banish from the sky

Those smiles unto the moodiest mind

Their own pure joy impart

Their sunshine leaves a glow behind

That lighens over the heart
