THE OLD TURNPIKE.

We hear no more of the changing hoof,
90 And the stage-coach rafting by;
For the steam-king rules the Travelled world,
And the old pixies left TO die.
The grass creeps over the flinty path,
And the stealthy daisies steal
Where once the stage-horse day by day,
Lifted his iron heel.
No more the weary stager breads
The toll of the coming morn;
No more the bustling landlord runs
At the sound Of the echoing horn;
For the dust lies still upon the road,
s And the bright-eyed children play
Where once the gathering hoof and wheel
Ratified along the way.
No more we hear the cracking whip,
Or the strong wheels rumbling sound:
And ah! the water drives us on,
And an iron horse is found.
The coach stands rusting in the yard,
And the horse has sought the plough;
We've spanned the earth with an iron rail,
And the stcam-king rules US now!
The old turnpike is pike no more,
Wide open stands the gate;
We have made US a road for our horse 10
stride,
Which we ride at a flying rate;
We have filled up the valleys and levclled the
hills;
And tunnelled the mountain side;
And round the rough crag's dizzy verge.
Fearlessly we ride.
On-on-on-with a naughty front!
A puff, a shrek, and a bound;
While the tardy echoes wake too late
To babble back the sound;
And the old pike road is left alone,
And the stagers seek the plough;
We have circled the earth with an iron rail,
And the steam-king rules us now.
