those who visit him. They are on the

much like other people; nay, some
times he may even be seen laughing.

Is "Woodman, Spare That Tree" Pla.
giarism!"

1t is pity to raise such a question:
but is ''Woodman, Spare That Tree"
the poem upon which the reputation of
George p. Morris largely depends, pla-
giarism? Did Mr.. Morris know any
more Chinese than he found on tea
chests2 Did he know the lovely ode
"Kan-tang" This ode can be found
among the odes and songs collected by
Wan Wang and Duke Chan at the begin
ming of the Chan dynasty B. c. 1926.
The dates of collection, says Dr. Wells
Williams, in his great book on The Mid
die Kingdom, extends from B. C. 1919
to not later than B. c. 5S5. There is no
telling how Chinese compiler could in
clude in his collection in b. G. 1920 a
poem not perhaps composed TIL centuries
after, but it is enough to say that Mr..
Williams refers the ode tang" or
"The Sweet Pear-Trec," to the time of
Wan Wang, a contemporary of Saul.
Here it is:
/. Oh, fell not that sweet pear-tree!
See how its branches spread.
Spoil not its shade
For Shao's chief laid
Beneath it his weary head.
2. Oh, clip not that sweet pear-tree
Each twrig and leafiet spare
IT'S sacred now.
Since the lord of Shao,
When weary rested there.
8. Oh, touch not that sweet pear-tree
Bend not a twig of it now;
There long ago,
As the stories show,
Oft halted the chief of Shao.
What is this but the Chinese way of
saying:
Woodman, spare that tree;
Touch not n single bough.
In youth it sheltered me,
And I'll protect it now
