~
II hawk once courted white little dove,
with the softest Of wings and voice full of
Aud the hawk-Oh yes, as other hawks go--
Was a well enough hawk for ought that l
knew.
But she was dove,
And her bright young life
Had been nurtured il love,
Away from all strife.
Well, she married the hawk. The groom was
delighted:
A feast was prepared and the friends all in
vited
docs any one think my story not true
He IS certainly wrong my facts are not new.)
Thsn he flew TO his nest,
With the dove by his side,
And soon all the rest
Took a squint at the bride.
A hawk for his father, a hawk for his mother,
hawk for his sister, hawk for his broeher,
And uncles and aunts there were by the
dozens,
And Oh such number of hawks for hi.
They were greedy and rough
A turbulent crew,
Always ready enough
To be quarrelscme, too
To the dove ali was strange, buthever word
In resestment she gave 10 the wrangling she
heard.
Ifa9hought Of the peaceful, far-away nest
Ever haunted her dreams, or throbbed in hel
breast,
No bird ever knew;
Each hour of her life;
Kind, gentle ans. true,
Was the HAWKS wife.
But the delicate nature was too sorely tried,
With no visible sickness the dove dropped and
died;
Then loud was the grief, end the wish all exr
pressed
To call the learned birds and hold an inquest.
So all the birds came.
But each shook bis head
No disease could he name
Why the dove should be dead.
Till wise old owl with a knowing look,
Stated this:--"The case is as clear as book;
No disease do find, or accidents shock;
The cause of her death was too much hawk
Hawk for her father, and hawk for her mother
Hawk for her sister. and hawk for her brother,
Was more than the delicate bird could bear;
She 'iath winged her away to a realm more
fair
She was nurtured dove:
Too hard hawks life
Void of kindness and love,
Full of hardness and strife"
And when he had told them the otLer birds
That this was the cause, and the verdict was
true.
