IN SCHOOL DAYS.


Still sits the schooIhouse by the read,
a ragged beggar summing;
Around it still the SumaChs grow,
And blackberry vines are runnings
Within, the masters desk is seen,
Deep SCARED by raps official;
The Warping floor. the battered Seats
The Jack-knife's carved initial
The charcoal frescoes on its walls,
Its doors worn sill, betraytng
The feet that, creeping slow to school,
Went storming out to playing!
Long years ago a winter sun
Shone over Il at setting;
Lit up its western window paneS,
And low caves icy fretting.
It touched the tangled golden curIa,
And brown eyes fuIl of grteYtngs
OF one who still her steps delayed
When all the school were leaving.
For near her stood the little boy
her childish favor singled;
His cap pulled low upon face
Where pride and shame were mingled
Pushing with restless fest the snow
To right and left he fingered -
As restlesSly her tiny hands
The blue-checked apron fingered.
He saw her lift her eyes; he felt
The soft hands Light caressing,
And heard the trem bling OF her voice.
As If fault confessing.
"I'm sorry that spelt the word;
I hate to go above you,
Because'-the brown eyes lower fell
because, you see, I love you'll"
Still memory to a gray-haired man
That EWeet child-face is shOFiog.
Dear girl the grasses on her grave
Have forty years been groWinEl
He lives to learn, In Iife's hard school,
How few who pass above him
Lament their triunph and his loss,
Like her-because they love him.
