MAY.

Be glad, my heart, for see her coming,
primrose chain in her waiving hair;
A hymn OF rapture her glad lips hummtng,
Blue violets clasped to her bosom fair.
On rodding wild flowers the dew S glancing.
Down shady lanes where the children stray
Like fairy banners young leaves are dancing
And seem to murmur, "'Tis May, tits May
And though she revels in country valleys,
And crowns the hedges with fragrant bloom
Her sweet breath blows through unlovely al
leys,
Through homes of sorrow and want and
gloom.
She bears glad tidings of Summer weather
To busy city and meadow gay;
So Toll and Pleasure shall sing together
The welcoming praises of May, sweet May.
