IX. ALONG THE TRAIL: LYRICS BY RICHARD HOVEY.




307

THE OPEN DOOR.




LOVE me, love me not, —
What is that to me?
I have not forgot
When we two were three.


She who loved us twain
Well enough to die, —
Can we love again
While her ghost stands by?


Love me, love me not, —
I can love no more,
For the empty cot
And the open door.
