A Poem of One Word.

Write me an epic" the warrior said
Victory, valor and glory we'd"
prithee, ballad" exclaimed the knight
1t Proves, adventure and faith unite
" An ode to freedom" the patriot cried
Liberty won and wrong defed"
q" Give me a DRAMA" the scholar asked
" The inner world in the outer masked"
Frame me a sonnet" the artist prayed
Power and passion in harmony played"
Sing me a lyric" the maiden sighed
A lark-note waking the morning wide"
D." Nay, all too long" said the busy age
Write me line instead of page"
The swift years spoke, the poet heard,
Your poem write i'm single word.'
He glanced in the maiden's glowing eyes
A moment glanced at the starlight skies
From the lights below to the lights above,
And wrote the One-word poem Love.

opinion to the power of the Convention 10 pro-
vide for the election OF clerk of the Circuit Court at

powers of the Convention arises. The matter was
under discussion when the Convention adjourned.
