Nesting in the folds of her dress, and

Mr.. Ashton took in the situation at a

BY this time Lily and her mother

Tangling love kEots bDwknots, all in ono

Have you turned away, and caring none,

Dumb? Am Idumb? II tbs dumb,

Wildly wishing could but come
Oh heart SO true, SO true to Lutte.
If to be dumb is to feel the pain
OF a hopeless hope, without sign,
Knowing the wish that comes in vain
'Gainst decree. All, then tbs mine
To be dumb! What are carols to Iue my OWE
What singer singing alone?
Oh, the singer singeth; but love, alone!
Passionate songs are sung in vain.
TOO late the song :" hearts both make moan,
Fate hath snapped the golden chain!
No response i'll souls that drift,
Happy song and chorus find;
TOO later the blue shows thro the rift,
They are wrecked ON reefs unkind.
Songs may float, and echoes come.

make it leave its hiding place. Sud.

one blow of his powerful tusk ripped
the man open to the chest. Upon his
screams two other hunters came to his
assistance and rapidly finished the
boar. The carpenter is in precarious
condition.
