BROTHER BARTHOLOMEW.

Brother Bartholomew, working time,
Would fall into musing and drop his tools
Brother Bartholomew cared for rhyme
More than for theses q the schools
For gain or lo-iBg, for veal or woe,
God made him poet, long ago.
AT mathis be sat, the book on his knees,
And his thoughts were wandering far, I wis;
The brotherhood chanted the litanies,
While he had no praying 20 do but this;
Watching through arehed windows high
The birds that sailed Ger the morning sky.
At compn hour, in the chapel dim,
He went to his stall and knelt with the rest
And oft, on the wings OF the evening hymn
Would his soul float out to the nights fair breast
And ever TO him the starry host
Planned bright as the tongue at Pentecost
" foolish rhymester, and nothing more
The idle fellow a cell can hold -
So judged the worthy lsSdor,
Prior Of ancient Nilhiswold
Yet somehow with dispraise content,
Signed not the culprit's banishmeut
Meanwhile Bartholomew went his way,
And patiently wrote IN his sunny cell
His pen fast travelled from day 10 day,
His DO ks were covered, the walls as well
''He were better pious monk instead
OF listless dawdler," the prior said.
Bartholomew died, as mor,als must
His spirit went free from the cowled throng
And after. they took Fl on the dark and dust
OF shelves and corners many song,
That cried from Britain 20 Cathay
How bard had risen--Rnd passed away.
Wonderful verses fair and Fne,
Full Of the old Greek loveliuess
The seer-lke vision. half divine:
Pathos and merriment in excess;
And every careful stsnza told
OF love and labor manifold.
The king came out aad stood beside
Bartholomew's taper.light bier;
And turning to his lords he signed
How worn and welried doth he appear
Our noble poet-now he is dead "
90, tireless worker r. the prior said.
