THE BROOKLET.

BYJ. F. HENDER SON.
Gush of liquid mountain air,
Limpid eye of maiden fair,
Crystal, silver, heavens blue
All Of these compare to you.
Whirling, purlin9,
Eddies curling,
Over stones your
Wavelets hurting.
On your sylvan way you glide.
Dashing down the mountain side,
Creeping gently through the brake,
Soon to sleep within the lake.
Flashing, splashing,
Downward dashing,
Into foam your
Waters lashing.
Oft at golden eventide,
love to linger by your side.
And watch your sparkling, winding way,
Singing trav'ling night and day.
Flowing, growing.
Always going,
80. Spray upon the
Moses throwing.
In the woods and under weeds,
Mong the rocks and through the reeds;
Now in shadow, now in sun,
Never resting. on your run.
Creeping leaping,
Never sleeping.
Flow ers soft your
Bosom sweeping.
Work of Tature-work divine,
Well love to call the mine;
Or upon thy brink recline,
When the vernal suns do shine.

Winding, wrinkling,
