MESSRS. DUNCAN DAVISON &

"OH! TAKE ME TO THY HEART AGAIN!"

Poetry by JESSICA RANKIN,

Composed by M. W. BALFE.
Price 2s.

Oh! take me to thy heart again!
I never more will grieve thee :)
All joys are fled and hope is dead
If I indeed must leave thee.
Forgive the wild and angry words
This wayward heart hath spoken;

I did not dream those cherished chords

So lightly could be broken.

Oh! take me to thy heart again.

I think how very sad and lone

This life would be without thee;
For all the joys my heart hath known
Are closely twined around thee.
Oh! teach me to subdue the pride
That wounded thee so blindly;
And be once more the gentle guide
Who smiled on me so kindly.

Then take me to thy heart again.

"THE SULIOTE WAR SONG,"
Sung by Mr. SANTLEY,

Composed by BRINLEY RICHARDS.
Price 3s.

Rouse ye Palikari,

Men of Suliote, rouse ye,

See on yonder mountain's brow,

Glows the beacon light!

Warlike songs are singing,-
While the trumpets ringing
Call the valiant Palikari,

To the coming Fight.

What though foes surround us,
Though their chains have bound us,
We will live as freemen live,
Or die as warriors die.

Come with weapons gleaming-
Come with banners streaming,
Raise your glorious battle cry,
Suliote shall be free.

"SYMPATHY,"

POETRY BY ELLIS BELL,
COMPOSED BY E. AGUILAR,
Price 2s.

There should be no despair for you,
While nightly stars are burning;
While evening pours its silent dew,
And sunshine gilds the morning.

There should be no despair, though tears
May flow down like a river:
Are not the best-beloved of years
Around your heart for ever.
They weep, you weep, it must be so;
Winds sigh, as you are sighing,
And winter sheds its grief in snow,
Where autumn's leaves are lying.
Yet, these revive, and from their fate,
Your fate cannot be parted;
Then, journey on, if not elate,
Still, never broken hearted.

"AWAKE LITTLE PILGRIM."

Poetry by the Rev. D. T. K. DRUMMOND.
Composed by MAURICE COBHAM.
Price 2s. 6d,

Awake, little pilgrim, the day is at hand,

The rays of the morning appear on the land;

O, haste with thy burden to life's narrow gate,

Ere the night shadows falling proclaim thee too late

Knock, little pilgrim, it shall not be vain,

Thy feeble entreaties admittance shall gain;
Thy Saviour is waiting to bid thee God speed,
He turns none away from his door in their need.

CO.

"THE DEW-DROP AND THE ROSE."

Poetry by ISABELLA HAMPTON.

Composed by G. A. OSBORNE. Price 2s. 6d.
A dew-drop reclined on a beautiful rose,
And whispered soft vows of his love,
When near that sweet flower, to seek soft reposc,
A sunbeam fell down from above!

The dew-drop instinctively felt there had come
A rival-his loved one to prove,

A shelter he sought next the heart of the rose,
And whispered soft vows of his love.

Still nearer came that sunbeam gay,
As he called the rose his bride,

Those words the dew-drop heard him say,
Then drooped his head and died.

"THE CHRISTMAS ROSE."

Poetry by M. A. STODART. Composed by LOVELL PHILLIPS. Price 2s. 6d. "The Christmas Rose! The Christmas Rose! 'Mid wintry frost and snow it blows;

And opes its portals pure and fair,

When winds have swept the gay parterre.

Just like a true and constant friend,

Whose faith no storms of life can bend;

Not the mere friend of summer day,

But firm when joy hath passed away.

This flower is like the joys that shine,

In sorrow's hour and life's decline,

When youth hath passed and pleasure flown,
And sad the spirit sighs alone;

Then marvel not that thus I twine

My thoughts around this gift of thine,

And muse on hopes and joys that last,

And bloom through life's most piercing blast."

"I'M NOT IN LOVE, REMEMBER." Poetry by JESSICA RANKIN.

Composed by M. W. BALFE. Price 2s.
Prithee tell me, gentle air,

Why my heart is full of care,

And why no pleasures charm me?

It is not Love torments me so:

I scorn the wily urchin's bow,

His arrows cannot harm me!

I try to sing-my voice is sad!

I sleep! bnt then 'tis just as bad-
Such gloomy things I dream on!
Can you not tell? nor you? nor you?
Oh then I know not what to do

To charm away the demon.

I sometimes think, if "I know who

Were here, he'd tell me what to do,

To bid the demon slumber!

Could I but hear his voice again,

I'm sure 'twould cheer my heart-but then "I'm not in love, remember!"

I'm not in love, remember.

"ARE THEY MEANT BUT TO DECEIVE ME."

Poetry from the Polish.

Composed by A. REICHARDT. Price 2s. 6d.
Are they meant but to deceive me,

Those fond words that tell of love
Ah! for ever it would grieve me
If their falsehood I should prove.
Though my heart would trust them gladly,
Though belief, alone, is bliss,
Yet I still must ponder sadly,
Ah! what bitter pain is this.
All my inmost soul concealing,
Shall I sternly answer "No?"
Or each secret wish revealing
Susll my words unfettered flow.
Ever lingering, never speaking,
Here my thoughts shall I express
For my heart if you are seeking,
Strive to find it by a guess.
