WORLDLY: WISE.

Il was the boatman Ronsalce,
And he sailed on through the mists SO wlite
And two little ladies sat at his knee .s4s
With their two little heads so bright;
And SO they sailed and sailed-all three
On the golden coast O the night.
Young Honsalee had Il handsome face. s,
And his great beard made him brown;
And the two little ladies with girlish grace
Thoy kept their eyelids down
The one in her silken veil of lace,
And the one in her wooisey gown.
For one little lady lived in the wood,
Like flower that hides from the day;
Her name was J enny-they called her the good
Amt the name of the other was May:
And her palace windows looked on the flood,
Where they softly sailed away.
Long time the balance even stood
With our Ronsalce that day
But what was q little house in the wood
To palace grand and gay?
So he gave his heart to Jenny, the good,
And his hand he gave to May.
