A wanderer found deep green spot
With shadowy Vertlure overruu:
Low grass, by any CLEAN forgot,
And small young vines whose highest
knot.
Had seldom seen the sun.
And every Idle leaf and blade,
Catching atany wind aStray,
With many-mingled murmrr prayed
Some breath. beyond the harrow glade,
From the great night and day.
So that stir was in the dell
AS of a myriad beaten wings,
What time, with sudden fall and swell
The captive wind began to tell
4 tale of marvellous things.
Spell-bound with raVturous awe,
Within some secret, sacred place..
While up and down his pulses run
As if his heart were played upon,
The listener bowed his face.
But fain at length with little. will
10 plod once more through bush and
brier,
Upon his lips there fingered still
Al echo like the haunting thrill
Along the smitten wire.
So. when he reached the busy street,
The gathered throng about him hung,
Praying the uitcrance complete
OF that new song 80 strangely sweet,
That treinbied OH his tongue.
AS best he could he san" to them,
NitIr many false note here and
there,
TIL even the rose upon her stem
Let tall her dcwy diatIcni
In tremulous despair.
But when the crowd in rapturous mood
BeSou@ht the singer once again,
He led them to the lonely wood;
And Ill the people silent stooti
10 hear the magic strain.
The wild sweet melody anew
Stirred Ill his soul to smiles and
tears;
Bat nothing heard the gaping crew,
Except Il noisy wind that bl w
About their open ears.
