ONLY A BLUE BELL. Copyright, 1887, by T. B. Harms & Co. 
Only a blue bell, emblem of constancy, Through long weary years, bringing her back to me, Placed 'twixt the pages, faded and dead to-day, Where she so tenderly plighted her love away; Oft as I gaze on this little flower, sent in her message long ago, Fondly I dream of life's happy hour buried, alas! 'neath the snow, 
Refrain. Only a blue bell, emblem of constancy, Through long weary years, bringing her back to me, Placed 'twixt the pages, faded and dead to-day, Where she so tenderly plighted her love away. 
When will this aching heart find its rest with thee? When will this weary life be from sorrow free? When will that loving smile, once so dear to me, Welcome me home at last, where parting ne'er can be, Welcome me home at last, where parting ne'er can be?-Refrain,
