NAY. C. PERCIvAL.

I feel a newer lIfe in every gale;
The winds that fan the flowers,
AID with iheir welcome breathlngs ill the sail,
Tell of serener hours
OF hours that glide unfelt away
Beneath the sky Of May
The spirit cf the gentle south wind calls
From Ills blue throne Of air,
And where his whispering voice in music falls,
Beauty is budding there;
The bright ones OF the valley break
Their slumbers, and awake.
The waving verdure rolls along the PLAN,
And the wide forest waves,
To welcome back It's playful mates again,
a canopy OF leaves;
And from is datkninS shadow loats
a gash OF trembling notes
Fairer aud brighter spreads the reign Of May;
The .iresses Of woods
With the hight dallying Of the west wind play;
And tie full trimming foods.
As gladly 10 the goal they run,
Hail the returning sun.
