Lines, Oft Have I Heard Thine Accents Steal

________________________________________________
Title:     Lines, Oft Have I Heard Thine Accents Steal
Author: James Avis Bartley [More Titles by Bartley]

Oft have I heard thine accents steal,
Like music on the air,
Then quickly turned to see thy form,
Sweet Mary! standing there.

But thou did'st ever glide away,
Nor heed my pleading prayer--
But now, alas! thou'rt but a Thought,
A phantom like the air.






[The end]
