A QUERY.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

THE shadows stretch their lank arms on the wall, And throng the room, while, hardly struggling through

The frowning gloom, on floor and wainscot fall

The wearied ember-flickers. Still we two

Sit hushed, nor dare our idle speech renew;

But as I watch thy firelit face the while,

And whisper "Sweetheart," giving love its due,

Ah, why, dear innocent and free from guile,

Dost thou so sadly and so faintly smile?
