FAIRIES' RECALL.




While the blue is richest
    In the starry sky,
While the softest shadows
    On the greensward lie,
While the moonlight slumbers
    In the lily's urn,
Bright elves of the wild wood!
    Oh! return, return!

Round the forest fountain,
    On the river shore,
Let your silvery laughter
    Echo yet once more;
