MARCH WINDS.

The rude March winds. the mad March winds.
What a comical part they play;
How they buster and fiuster, and rare, and roar,
And knock at the window, and bang at the door,
In the most undignifed way
Unbidden they enter the garden gate i
In eddiee. and whisks, and whfrls:
And round the house they rush pell.mcl,
For many ghostly tale they tell
To the frightened boys and girls
The fierce March winds, the wild March winds,
What chorus Of elfiH sounds
They make as they dart down the nearest street
To jostle the passengers oil their feet,
As they travel their daily rounds
They pull and tug at the old mans beard, .fat
An6 redden the young mans nose.
They tumble the apple stands down In the snow,
Then whistle and scream as of they 90
To startle the bellies and beauxl
The bold March winds, the cold March winds.
Though they strike to our very bones
Yet the sweet little violets lit their heads,
And the daisies start from their wtntry beds,
AT the sound of the trumpet tones!
Yes, the rude March winds, the mad March
winds,
Are the heralds of balmy spring,
OF the fragrant breath OF the summer sweet,
The golden bloom of the corn and wheat,
And the bright birds on the wing'
