waits thee, But while | fame e | -lates thee, _Oh! still | remem | -ber me_. When the | praise thou | meetest, To thine | ear is | sweetest, _Oh! then | remem | -ber me_. Other | arms may | press thee, Dearer | friends ca | -ress thee, All the | joys that | bless thee, Sweeter | far may | be: But when | friends are | nearest, And when | joys are | dearest, _Oh! then | remem | -ber me._ When, at | eve, thou | rovest, By the | star thou | lovest, _Oh! then | remem | -ber me_. Think when | home re | -turning, Bright we've | seen it | burning; _Oh! thus | remem | -ber me_. Oft as | summer | closes, When thine | eye re | -poses On its | ling'ring | roses, Once so | loved by | thee, Think of | her who | wove them, Her who | made thee | love them; _Oh! then | remem | -ber me_." MOORE'S _Melodies, Songs, and Airs_, p. 107. _Example IV.--From an Ode to the Thames_.

JANE B. LOCKE: _N. Y. Evening Post; The Examiner, No. 98_. _Example VI.--"Summer Longings"--First Two of Five Stanzas_. "Ah! my | heart is | ever | waiting, Waiting | for the | May,-- Waiting | for the | pleasant | rambles Where the | fragrant | hawthorn | brambles, With the | woodbine | alter | -nating, Scent the | dewy | way. Ah! my | heart is | weary | waiting, Waiting | for the | May. Ah! my | heart is | sick with | longing, Longing | for the | May,-- Longing | to e | -scape from | study, To the | young face | fair and | ru
