Still sits the school-house by the road,
A ragged beggar summing;
Around it still the sumacs grow.
And blackberry vines are running.
Within, the masters desk is seen,
Deep Scared by raps of1cial;
The warping floor, the battered seats,
The jack knife's carved initial.
The charcoal frescoes on its walls.
Its doors worn sill, betraying
The feet that, creeping slow to school
Went storming out to playing!
Long years ago, Winter sun
Shone over 1t at setting,
Lit up Its western window-panes,
And low caves icy fretting.
1t touched the tangled golden curls.
And brown eyes full Of grieving,
or one who still her steps delayed
When all the school were leaving.
For near her stood the little boy
Her childish favor singled;
His cap pulled low upon face
Where pride and shame were mingled
Pushing with restless feet the snow
Te right and left, he fingered,
As restlessly her tiny hands
The blue checked apron fingered.
He saw her lift her eyes he felt
The soft hand' light caressing.
And heard the tremble of her goice.
As If fault confessing.
Pm sorry spelt the word,
hate to 60 absve you.
Because''-rhe brown eyes lower fell
because, you see, Iloue you !"
Still memory to a gray-haired man
That sweet child face is showing.
Dear girl! the grasses on her grave
Have forty years b cen growing!
He lives to learn, in life's hard school,
How few who pass above him
Lament their triumph, and his loss
Like her-because they love him.
