Colonial Echo, 1903 . tions. iSflt^t. .M-*S!!Siim^ ts^ ^•w^ ^^ 75 Xanocluci. I Raze across tlie lonely lea, — Across the shady dell:And far away is the surging sea, With its ever bounding swell.And from afar there comes to greetMy ears with music, wondrous sweet—The sound of the sunset bell. The radiant sun has said good night. .And its halo faintly gleams, The darkening heavens catch the lightOf the fading golden beams, (^.ood night, say all the dew-gemmed flowers, Birds hasten to their .sheltered bowers.As the bells ring out, good night. The sighing wind comes stealing by. With its weary, mournful sound, And rustles mid the leaves that lieScattered upon the ground.The peasant on his homeward wayHeeds the bell and stops to pray.As he hears the holy sound. -All nature seems to be at rest;As daylight fades from sightA few faint gleams come from the West, Like a halo fair and bright.The last faint notes of the sunset bellFloat oer the land in a sad farewell:And the echo says, good night.
