OvERWORKED.


From out of the rosy land Of dreams,
She comes at early morning;
The dew upon the meadow CLEANS.
Fair as brides adjoining.
Aroma from the moaning pines,
And fields of blooming clover;
The noisy brook that sings and shines,
With willows bending over.
The eastern sky is all afiame,
AS though. TO one beholding,
The gold and sapphire Clouds that came
Were heavens gates unfolding.
But all this glory stands apart,
Nor charms her with its beauty,
For care sits heavy on her brow,
Where falls the line OF duty.
The cows await the milking time,
With soft and patient lowing,
The sturdy farmer In his prime,
Must hasten to his moving.
His wife must speed the morn's repast,
And work with nimble fingers,
For farmers all from first to last,
Make hay while sunshine fingers.
And when the meals are DER, the pals,
vi lOdliluk Hilih
With fragrance caught from sunny wales,
To future JOY relating.
The cream lies thick, like cloth OF gold,
Where shining pans are trimming,
Their riches gathered fold on fold,
All ready for the skimming.
Then, later, as In olden DAYS,
With much Of stir and flutter,
BY weary hands the dasher plays,
And wins the golden butter.
And so the days go on, and on
No time for rest and pleasure;
"a woman's work is never DONE"
Is true in fullest measure.
And as the sun sinks in the west,
And day grows into even,
Weary and worn out she goes TO rest,
And almost longs for heaven.
