Ho! ye worthy pedsgogues of Ohio

A STUDY OF THE CYCLONE,

BY C,E GOODWIN.
The cyclone is beast of prey,
1troams the Western plains,
1t lives on people, grain and hay
And swallows railroad trains.
Upon the earth it is a power,
And it never stops to rest;
It's gaits is ninety miles an hour
Whene'er it does its best.
Its home is in the Sunny South,
'Tis there it's reared and fed;
1t scoops its victuals in its mouth
And travels on its head.
The lightning flashes from its eyes,
While loud its voice doth roar;
Its body reaches to the skies.
It's course is marked with gore.
Now where these mighty things exist,
Which man cannot control
The fellow that would not be missed
Must crawl down in some hole.
