THE JOLLY OLD pnDaGoGuI.

Twas a jolly old pedagogue, long ago,
Tall and slender, and sallow and dry;
His form was bent and his gait was slow,
His long thin hair was white as snow,
But wonderful twinkle showne in his eye;
And he sang every night as he went TO bed,
e Let us be happy down here below;
The living should live though the dead be dead"
Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago.
lie taught his scholars the rule of three,
Writing; and reading, and history too;
He took the little ones up on his knee,
For Kind old heart in his breast had he,
And the wants of the little child he knew.
Learn when you re young" he often said,
"There's much 10 enjoy down here below,
Life for the living and rest for the dead, )"
Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago.
With the stupidcst boys he was kind and cool,
Speaking only in gentest tones.
The rod was hardly known in his school
Whipping, to him, was barharous rule,
And too hard work for his poor old bones;
Besides, it was painful he sometimes said.
" We must make life pleasant here below,
The living need charity more than the dead"
Said the Jolly old pedagogue, long ago.
With the roses and woodbines over the door
His room was quiet, and neat and plain,
But spirit of comfort there held reign,
And made him forget he was old and poor;
u need so little, he often said,
"And my friends and relatives here below
Won't litigate over me when I'm dead
Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago
He smoked his pipe in the balmy air
Every night when the sun went down,
While the soft wind played on his silver hair,
Leaving its tenderest kisses there,
On the jolly old pcdagogue's jolly old crown
And feeling the kisses he smiled and said,
Twas glorious world down here below;
"Why wait for happiness till we are dead ?''
Said this jolly old pedagogue, long ago.
He sat at the door one midsummer night,
After the sun had sunk in the west
And the lingering beams of golden light
Made his kindly old face look warm and bright
While the odorous night wind whispered res
Gently, gently he bowed his head;
There were angels waiting for him, know
He was sure of his happiness, living or dead,
This jolly old pedagogue long ago.
