Saturday Afternoon.

BY N. p. WILLIS.
| love to look on a scene like this,
Of wild and careless play,
And persuade myself that I'm not old,
And my locks are not gray,
For it stirs the blood in an old mans veins,
And it makes his pulses fly,
To catch the thrill of a happy voice,
And the light Of pleasant eye.
have walked the world for fourscore years,
And they say that | am old,
And my heart is ripe for the reaper,
And my years are well nigh told.
Ii is very true, it is very true;
I'm old and I'll "abide my time,"
But my heart will leap at scene like this,
And I'll half renew my prime.
Play on, play on, I'm with you there,
In the midst of your merry ring;
can feel the thrill of the daring jump,
And the rush of the breathless swing.
hide with you in the fragrant hay,
And whoop in the smothered call,
And my feet slip on the seedy floor,
And care not for the fall.
am willing to die when my time is come,
And shall be glad to 60,
For the world at best is dreary place,
And my pulse is getting low
But the grave is dark and the heart will sink
In ireading is gloomy way,
And it weals my heart from dreariness
To see the young sc gay.
