THE MAGIC EYES OF LOVE!

RONDEAU.—Miss Frances.

Ah! let me still, where'er I rove,
Look through the magic eyes of love,
Then place me on some desert drear,
And I shall deem I walk on flowers.
Shall think those seraph strains I hear,
Which greet the soul in heaven's bowers,
Then through o'er burning sands I stray,
They will seem sands of gold to me;
And though no waters there may play,
I'll think some cooling stream I see:
But let me still, where'er I rove,
Look through the magic eyes of love.
