And my weak hards, must earn the bread.

While girls are taught all work to spurn.
No work wherein to earn her fame
Her highest end and earthly aim
To dress, and firt-2nd change her name.
For this her hands need not be trained: 4
Enough if they be whlte-blue-veined,
And not by any labor stained.
And some, reared thus, would sooner soil
Their souls with blacklist sins, than spoil
The whiteness of their hands with toll.
There's s'music," friends to me have said;
They'd better told me wash instead;

Then you might "teach," suggested more
Though French and Greek 1 long conned o. er

That such need as mine should find
A woman weak of hand and mind.

No time for doubts and gloomy fears,
Nor to bemoan my wasted years.

THE BURDENS OF THE DAY.
By BAYARD TAYLOR.
From the Atlantic Monthly,

From the Atlantic Monthly
Who shall rise and cast away,
First, the burdens of the day
Who assert his place and teach
Lighter labor, nooier speech,
Standing firm, erect and strong,
Proud as freedom, free as song ?
Tol we eroan beneath the weight
S)ur own weaknesses create
Crook the knee and shut the lip,
All for tanner fellowship
Load our slack, compliant clay
With the burden Of the day.
Higher paths there are to tread
Fresher fields around US spread
Other flames of sun and star
Flash at hand and lure affair;
Larger manhood might we share,
sSurer fortune-did we dare
"a our mills of common thought,
By the pattern all is wrought =;
IN our school of life, the man
Drills to suit the public plan,
And through labor, love and play,
Shifts the burdens Of the day.
Power of all it's right of none
Right hath each beneath the sun
To the breadth and liberal space
Oftthe independent race
To the chariot and the steed,
To the will, desire and deed
All, the gods of wood and stone
Can single saint dethronc.
But the people who shall aid
'Gainst the puppets they have made +!
First they teach and then obey,
Tis the burden of the day.
Thunder shall we never hear
In this ordered atmosphere
Never this monotony feel
Shattered by a trumpet's peal
Never airs that burst and blow
From eternal SUBMITS, know!
Though no man resent his wrong,
Still is free the poets song;
Still, stag, his thoughts may leap
DER the herded swine and sheep,
And in pastures far away
Lose the burden of the day.
