When Kindly night has put 70 night

Its quiet hooks end bovsgsj
But moro than Ill loVe the thfaI

For then's the time Tor me 70 rhyme
My muse 10 gracious then.
Apart from noise which much annoys
A porson who has neeveA
The perfoos calm, i1ce soothing balm,
A grateful purpose sesvess
And then u when, BON eyes OF men
So reStcully SECURE,

So killing 70 endure.
Thyme Of men, md then again

A Feminine Superiority.
Men are lords Of an creation,
Highest type that God has plsnnedI
In their strength they rule the nation
With Q harsh and lion hand

In the StorneT things OF lie,
But he can't talk to + baby

Uvwy, dovey, precious pet,
Papa'e pride and manma>e pleAsureSs
She can beat him there, you b0tl
Let one Of these august creatures
Take baby In his armA
And at once his words and features
Flu its heart with Wild alarnR
All its tender being trembles,
As his words It's Ger assatl
For In sound they quite resemble
When q buzz saw strikes nail;
*Ah therel Take your base, you dariine
All your beauty must be hid
Whoa' you hoodoo, stop your snaEitnA
Here, wife, take this bawHng kdr'

So Joyous is my heart to-day
Ny feet refuse to tread tho earthi
Ny vodce brooks forth In ringing 10y,
To which my sunny mood gives birth.
DO not even stay to think
Il happiness Ike this will last,
But Of tho cup deeply drink,
For b1issful moments dy too fast
Berth smiles her brightest smile ON mot
Nature her sweetest music makes;
Birds song, the breeze, each flower, each f3oA
In me q new delight awakes.
Abb would there were no storm nor Gaoom,
No fading leaves, NO w1nszy coids
That summer bow'rs would ever blooms
That lovely things would meter grow old.
Yst III this beauty lives again
IN pure and oloudl0ss skies above
BeGaty IN richer form VIII reign
No SORROW there, but only love.

The Use OF Books.
Tread old Rants CEtMQue Of Reason
Quito often IN the winter season,
And wonder more each passing minute
II there is ought OF reason In II.
Tread some poet every spran0s
And catch myself 6wond0E4n0
II he, the writer, tits that's Dense.
Or l. II I that's lacadng se0sei
Tread in summer some sweet story
OF mAadens loved By men Of Glory.
