HIGHWAY ROBBERY.

Robbed on the highway boldly,
Rohhed in e ruthless way;
Robbed without a cry or parley,
Robbed in the open day
This remember only:
A strange and subtle spell:
A glarae like summers lightning,
And voice like silver bell.
! gave no cry nor struggle,
CAlleu not for aid aloud;
Sought not the law : protection.
Nor pity from the crowd.

Nay, more, forgayc the Fohber
Whose path my Own had crossed.

Captured by i've feet one"
Bound by tether finer
Than ever spider spunl
My cuptor wore a bonnet,
Misty and blue and small;
Outside it, rose Or feather,
| cannot tell at all.
But pearls, and stars. and roses,
And curling rings uf gold,
Were somewhere 'twixt the bonnet
Aud the throat ties silkcn fold
And words with silver echoes
Rang as she passed me by.
And 1hcn my heart, uugUWded
She bore OF bodily.
Twas thus the robber met me,
one sunny Saturday
Robbed me in open daylight,
Upon the broad highway.
