An Irish Summer.

Wandering steps have brought me hither

TO this larger hcme OF freedom, where her sun
shines on the land;
But my thoughts will wander ever. back TO
where tho Fergus looks on
Smiling valleys III with glory, howersand waves
and emerald Strand,
Shapes of beauty robed In virgin and mmacy-
late demcnnor
Hill and vineyard, grove delicious, pour their
Incense ON my soul,
Yet, stu, there are visions whose spotloss SER

Puts 10 shame those bright rich treasures--
Irish hill, and vale aud knoll
IT'S summer in old Ireland. blushug tender
like maiden,
When love first opens her heart ia the morning
And tree and flower and sireamlet, with her
smiles and glory laden,
Greet her raptured eye and fancy, through the
sprlugtide's falling tears!
NOW my heart is full Of holy calm and sweet
emotions,
Thrilling my bosom ever like the cadence of
Once heard within the pillars of church's
mute devotions,
Full Of loyo and peace and glory, as e. swsyod

Meath the star-enameled footstool OF the God

And the iir-olad bills Of Burrcn robed in bues
