LITTLE STREAMS.

Little streams, in light and shadow,
Flowing through the pasture meadow
Flowing by the green wayside;
Through the forest dim and wide;
Through the hamlet still and small!
BY the cottage by the hall
BY the ruined abbey still;
Turning, here aud there, mill
Bearing tribute to the river;
Little streams, l love you ever.
Summer music is there flowing;
Towering plants in them are growing;
Happy life is in them all,
Creatures innocent and small
Little birds come down to drink
Fearless on their leafy brink;
Noble trees beside them grow,
Glooming them with branches low,
And between, the sunshine glancing.
In their little waves is dancing.
Little streams have flowers a many,
Beautiful and fair as any;
Willow-herb with cotton seed;
Arrowhead with eye ofjet,
And the water-violet
Where the Towering rush you meet,
And the pluming meadow-sweet;
And in places deep and Silly,
Marble-like, the water-lilly.
Little streams, their voices CHEEKY
Sound forth welcomes to the weary,
Flowing on from day to day,
Without stint and without stay.
Here, upon their aowery bank,
In the old times pilgrims drank
Here, have seen, as now, pass by
Kingfsher and dragon-hyj
Those bright things that have their dwelling
Where the little streams are swelling.
Down in valleys green and lowiy,
Murmuring not and gliding slowly;
Up in observation-disclosures wild,
Fretting like peeyish child;
Through the hamlet, where all day
In their waves the children play
Running west, or running east,
Doing good to man and beast,
Always giving, weary never,
Little streams, love you ever
