Two Visions.

Where close the curving mountains drew
To clasp the stream in their embrace,
With every outline, curve and hue
Reflected in its placid face,
The plowman stopped his team TO watch
The train. rs swift it Numbered by;
Some distant glimpse Of life to catch,
He strains his eager, wistful eye.
The morning freshness lies on him,
Just wakenel from his balmy dreams;
The travellers, begrimed and dim.
Think longingly of mountain streams.
oh, for the joyous mountain air,
The fresh, delightful autumn day
Among the hillsl The plowman there
Must have perpetual holiday!
And he, as all day long he guides
His steady plow, with patient hand,
Thinks of the flying train that glides
INTO some new, enchanted land.
Where, day by day, no plodding round
Wearies the frame and dulls the mind
Where life thrills keen 20 sigh. and sound,
With plows and burrows left behind.
Even so, to each, the untrod ways
or life are touched by .ancy's glow,
Tha, ever sheds It's brightcs, rays
Upon the path we 10 not knowl
