1t ia a pity to raise such a oues-
ton, but is "Woodman. Spare that
Tree" the poem upon which the re-
putstion of George 2. Morris largely
depends, plagiarism? Did Mr.. Nor
ris know any more Chinese than he
found on tea chests? Did he know
the lovely ode "Kan-tsge?" This ode
can be found among the odes and
songs collected by Wan Wang and
Duke Chan a. the beginning Of
the Chan dynasty (B. @. 1126). The
dates of this collection. says Dr. Wells
Williama. in bis great book on The
Middle Kingdom" extsnd from B.
@. 17lS to not later than B. @. 585.
There is no telling how a Chinese
compiler could include in his collect
ton in B. @. 1l20 a poem not per.
hapa composed till centuries after,
but it is enough to say that Mr.,
Williams refers the ode "Kan.tang."
or "The Sweet Pear Tree" to the
time of Wan Wang, contemporary
of Saul. Here it is:
l. Oh fell not that sweet pear tree,
See how its branches spread.
Spoil not its shade,
For Shao's chief laid
Bsreath It his weary head.
Oh, clip not that sweet rear treti
Each twig and leaiet spare
"Tis sacred now,
Si.ce the Lord OF Shao,
Wiea weary, rested there.
3. Oh, ouch not that sweet pear tree,
Beponot a twig Of 1t now;
| There long ago,
IS the story show.
), Oft hslhd the Chief Of sbso.
What is TIL but the Chinese way
OF saying:
