| 621. The Shadow Dance |
| | | By Louise Chandler Moulton |

| |
| SHE sees her image in the glass,— | |
| How fair a thing to gaze upon! | |
| She lingers while the moments run, | |
| With happy thoughts that come and pass, | |
| |
| Like winds across the meadow grass | 5 |
| When the young June is just begun: | |
| She sees her image in the glass,— | |
| How fair a thing to gaze upon! | |
| |
| What wealth of gold the skies amass! | |
| How glad are all things ’neath the sun! | 10 |
| How true the love her love has won! | |
| She recks not that this hour will pass,— | |
| She sees her image in the glass. | |
