    "THE IRISH EMIGRANT (2)
    The place is little changed, Mary, the day is bright as then,
    The lark's loud song is in my ear, and the corn is green again;
    But I miss the soft clasp of your hand, and the breath warm on your cheek,
    And I still keep list'ning to the words you never more may speak,
    you never more may speak."
