BREATHE NOT AGAIN THAT DREADFUL WORD. Poetry by Leman Rede; to the Irish Melody, Moore's 'Whene'er I see those smiling eyes.' Affetuoso.

[graphic]

which it breath'd the

Still smile, my love, as when the dream
Of passion woke that sunny ray,
Which melted, like the western beam,
When daylight fades in dew away.

Let my adoring eyes perceive

The smile you gave, when love was young; Still let thy playful fancy weave

The tale on which, entranc'd, I've hung,

of song.

Tell me you love, and let me see

The truth in thy dissolving glance:
Turn, turn that languid eye to me,

And let its light my soul entrance;

But if that bliss you now refuse,

And love no more can wake those charms,
O take me, then, and let me lose
Existence in thy faithless arms.

WHY DOES EMMELINE WANDER?

Poetry by George Soane, A.B.; Music by M. W. Balfe.-Published by Davidson. Andantino.

Why does Emme line wander,

SO lone and SO pale,

While night

winds are blow-ing through the fo-rest and vale? While the moon's light is cloud-ed,

MINSTREL, STRIKE THE HARP.

The Music to the 'Da Conta,' in Bellini's Opera of Norma, by G. Soane, A.B.-Published by Davidson.

[graphic]

Min-strel, strike the harp that slumbers; Let it gush in sweet-est num

bers, Gently as the stream-let flow-ing, When the winds of spring are blow-ing. Sing to

me no themes of glory, Nor the wild Bac-chan - tes' sto ry, Nor the

sea-man for his plea-sure, Brav-ing Death below, above;- Tune

me

a gold en mea-sure, All

TELL HER I'LL LOVE HER.
Composed by Shield.

Tell her I'll love her while the clouds drop rain, Or while there's

[blocks in formation]

life is

o'er, And then my ghost shall visit, shall visit this sweet shore !

Tell her, I only ask she'll think of me,-
I'll love her while there's salt within the sea!

Tell her all this, tell it o'er and o'er,-
The anchor weighs, or I would tell her more.
