REMEMBER ME.
(To E. F.)


Thou gavest me a picture, Dear -
One I shall keep for many a year -
But till tonight I failed to see
There faintly traced, "Remember me.”

"Remember," 'tis the sweetest word
That you e’er spoke or I have heard,
And by all that is good and true
I promise to remember you.

My sweetheart! Since we two first met,
Think you that I could e'er forget?
Ah, no! Until I cease to be,
That long will I remember thee!

If years should separate us twain,
And we should never meet again,
Keep in your heart for me a spot,
Bear Eva, and forget-me-not.

This is the boon I beg of you,
My Barling, loving, tender, true,
Whate'er I do, where e'er I be,

"Remember me !" "Remember me!"
