POetrN
From the Picayune.
For the Love of Lady May.
BY PEARL RIVERS.

BY PEARL RIVERS.
The reign of Winter is over,
And see Lord March to-day Tr
With magic compass in his hands
Surveying all the rightful lands
Of his love, the Lady May.
Gladly watch him running
His golden line this way;
'9 OF forth and South, and East and West,
He will claim the farest and the best
& In the name of Lady May.
Quickly each line he measures
Then dropping the magic chart,
All for love OF the Lady May,
He tolls by night and he tolls by day,
- Proudly and light of heart
From her Court she sent him, saying,
Go till my land for me;
And when l ccme. if find it fair,
Budding and biossoming every where,
My bridegroom you shall be-
And for love of his Lady,
His strong white arm dishands
Each wild-eyed tribe, and IaWless clan,
& OF weeds and brambes that Ger ran
And tented upon her lands.
Briars, and burs, and thistles,
He clears them all away;
They pierce ana sting, but he does not feel,
His feet are brass anu bis hands are steel, .
For the love of Lady May.
Oh. on the rugged hill tops,
Down in the plains below,
His royal plow, the Sunshine now
He guides with flushed and heated brow,
Carefully and slow.
lizard little hearts grow tender,
.le And throb for my Lady fair
And he gives the earth the earthly kind,
But the winged seed he gives to the wind
70 sow in the fields of air.
''The land must be smooth and mellow,
Or hard little hearts will cheat"
And over his Lady's wide domain
He runs with his shining harrow, Rain,
Til he feels them stir and beat.
"Ho March ~ call from my window,
You are wearing grace away,
You are growing old, you are growing gruff
Your back is bent, and your face is rough.
For the love of Lady May ~
'Willingly grow double
Willingly grow gray;
There is nothing that would not bear,
There is nothing that would not dare,
For the love of L,dy May
But what of the young Lord April
You left, and the Court with May,
He will kiss her cheek he will kiss her hand
While your Lordship tills the Lady's land
Full thousand leagues away
''Ho Poet!" he answers sharply,
''Tis a bold false thing you say,
Tho the young Lord April press his suit,
/ will stake my life against your Lutte,
On the truth of Lady May
