The Governor has ordered mat sheds be erected and
food to be distributed among the needy good number

HAsTY WORDS.

HAsTY WORDS
Full oft a word that lightly leaves the tongue
Anothcr's breast unconsciously has wrung;
And were the wound but patent to the eye.
We'd mourn the pain that solace might defy
Was it taunt-perhaps thoughtless jest
An idle ripple Of the vacant breast,
But tiny shafts may yield yenomed death,
What need, to speed them. but little breath
The Bushman thus secures inglorious prey;
And words can men. as darts the Ostrich slay:
Strange that the breath providing Nature lends
In man alone to work Of ruin tends
We toy with Hearts as If the thousand chords
That vibrate to the touch Of hasty words.
Could jar out dscords all the live-long day.
Nor any tension cause them to give way
Oh. strike them gently every human breast
Is by secret load Of grief oppressed:
Forbcar to add note of tmcless
Where discords ever are so prone to flow
