THE FLIGHT OF ARETHUSA.

THE FLIGHT OF ARETHUsA.
BY NRs MARGARET J. PRESTON.
IT'S an antique, mythic story
OF those primal days, when men
Peopled with ideal beauty
When the world was In its childhood,
And Its credulous delight
Saw the creatures of Its fancy
Present to its mortal sight
Ere gr.sped the grand conception that the universal
Moving Natures myriad pulses was her Makers living
soul
Near BRIGHT Arcadisn river,
Fringed and shadowed to the brink,
By the snowy-blosaomd alders,
STOPPED maiden down to drink
On the hills her flying footsteps
Had been Feet % antelope's,
While her train, the virgin huntress
Led along the Elean slopes:
And exhausted with pursuing abe had turned aside 70
Burning cheek and flushing forehead in the cool trans
lucent wave.
From her painting waist abe lightly
Let the ioosened girdle foat,
And withdrew the golden arrow
That about her ivory throat
Hsad the bsoiderd peplon gathered,-
,Ht the vestment shd and fell
From her bosom's orbcd whiteness-
From her shoukler's sloping SWELL
And shs bushed to cssch the vision which the mirror
R..isSsd Win it's rspturous beauty,-bsck upon her
startled visw.
Hidden half midst velvet mosses,
One supporting hand cleaned mir,
Whilst the othr freed the braidings
or the hyscinthine hsir:
And - ftum beneath the hIek
Floated each yoluptuous tress.
Lesping high, the wooing water
Csught It IN glad caress:
whsn me bent shove its sursce hhsy - the lily dips
Every ripple rushed to lvtsh ksses on hsr dewy lips
Arms iqxtsibIy entxining.
