APPENDIX

Where will my home be? I'll not ask;
 I would not now be told!
Enough to know 'tis God who will
 In all my being hold,

I do not know what lovely flowers
 May deck the new world's vales;
But, though the brightest bloom abound,
 If spring no primrose hails,

Its absent beauties I shall mourn,
 For I have loved that flower;
And my heart's friends have loved it too
 From childhood's earliest hour.
