But the myrtle fades, and the 0aAs'' st.""''
Disappear. when the snow'storms ialI.
They nav oIso toll Of the aspen bough,
Where the sarcry dan:er shine;
But for mo III ling my shell, and sing

Oh! the broad catalpa's crest is fair,
With its blossoms clustering white,
Like the starlight free, on deep green sea,
When the, moon hath fed the night:
And the locust looks like pale young bride,
When the April sunbcams slime;
But prouder thing is the forest king
Is the lordly mountain pine.
/ have heard them boast of the southern coast,
Where the dark magnolias CLEAN;
Of the orange blooms in the deep green glooms,
And the palms beside the stream.
But myself sigh for northern sky
Where the glacial clouds recnc;
For towering hill. and rushing rill
And the lordly mountain pine.
For find home, if chance 10 roam
Where the winding mountains be,
And see friend if the blue skies bend
Ger that tadeless mountain tree.
Then love the blast, as it whistles past
With a melody divine
When its pale white wings sweep the strang
harp strings
OF the lordly mountain pine.
