There's something in the parting hourWill chill the warmest heart,Yet kindred, comrades, lovers, friends,Are fated all to part.But, this I've seen, and many a pang has pressed it on my mind,The one who goes is happier than those he leaves behind.No matter what the journey be,Adventurous, dangerous, far;To the wild bleak or deep frontier,To solitude or war;Still fortune cheers the heart that dares, in all of human kind,And those who go are happier than those they leave behind.The bride goes to the bridegroom's homeWith doubtings and with tears,But, does not Hope her rainbow spreadAcross her cloudy fears?Alas! the mother who remains, what comfort can she find, but this:The one that's gone is happier than the one she leaves behind.Have you a friend, a comrade dear,An old and valued friend?Be sure your term of sweet concourseAt length must have an end;And when you part, as part you will, oh! take it not unkind,If he, who goes, is happier than you he leaves behind.God wills it so! and so it is;The Pilgrims on their way,Though weak and worn, more cheerful areThan all the rest who stay.And when at last, poor man, subdued, lies down to death resigned,May he not still be happier far than those he leaves behind?

Still sits the school-house by the road,A ragged beggar sunning;Around it still the sumachs grow,And blackberry vines are running.Within the master's desk is seen,Deep scarred by raps official;The warping floor, the battered seats,The jack-knife's carved initial.Long years ago, one winter's sunShone over it at setting;Lit up the western window pane,And low eaves icy fretting.It shone upon the tangled curls,And brown eyes full of grieving,Of one who still her steps delayed,While all the school were leaving.For near her stood the little boyHer childish favor singled;His cap was pulled low on his brow,Where pride and shame were mingled.With restless foot he pushed the snowTo right and left; he lingered;As restlessly her tiny handsThe blue checked apron fingered.He saw her lift her eyes,He felt the soft hand's light caressing,He heard the trembling of her voice,As if a fault confessing."I'm sorry that I spelt the word,I hate to go above you,""Because"—the brown eyes lower fell—"Because, you see, I love you."Still, memory to a gray-haired man,That sweet child face is showing;Dear girl, the grasses o'er her graveHave forty years been growing;He lives to learn in Life's hard schoolHow few who pass above him,Lament their triumph and his loss,Like her, because she loves him.Let fate do her worst! there are relics of joy,Bright dreams of a past, which she cannot destroy;Which came in the night-time of sorrow and care,And bring back the features that joy used to wear.Long be my heart with such memories filled,Like the vase in which roses have once been distilled;You may break, you may shatter that vase, if you will,But the scent of the roses will hang round it still!Thomas Moore.
