a FREE TRANsLATIoN.-Vict Hugo must
have have been inspired when he penned this beau

Qui sent trembler la branche, mails dui chante

Now, the full translation of this into Eng

Be like the Mugwump. sitting now
High In the crab trees top:
lie sings. nor heeds the trembling Dough
His wings know when TO flop.

THE BALLET GIRL
With complexion like the rose
Mid the SHOWS,
Due TO powder on her nose,
/ suppose
She twirls upon her toes
In abbreviated clothes.
Ana EXHIBITS spangled hose
To the beauX.
When cruel time bestows
dispose,
Fairy arts and all those
She Outgrows.
And murmurlngy goes
To the very hndnosr rows,
To pirouette and pose
With the crows"
When life frayed and faded grows,
l. Ike her bows,
She IN garrets sits and sews
FurbtlQws,
Til her weary eyelids close
In the peace OF deaths repOse,
Is she reapng what she sows2
Heaven knows.
