| 1068. The Sunshine of Thine Eyes |
| | | By George Parsons Lathrop |
| |
| |
| THE SUNSHINE of thine eyes, | |
| (O still, celestial beam!) | |
| Whatever it touches it fills | |
| With the life of its lambent gleam. | |
| |
| The sunshine of thine eyes, | 5 |
| Oh, let it fall on me! | |
| Though I be but a mote of the air, | |
| I could turn to gold for thee. | |
