HE WINDS SUMMONS.

Across the uplands from The sea,
With plaintive burden DER and DER,
'Oh, will ye roam the world with meY'
The wintry skies were all too chill,
The wintry lands too stark and gray.
would not do the wild Winds will;
barred the door and said him nay.
But when the Night crept, vast and black,
Up the long valleys from the sea,
The cold Wind followed in his track,
And swift and stealthy followed he.
The mad Wind clamored at my door;
His voice was like the angry sea
That breaks in thunder on the shore,
And still he cried, ''Come forth to mel''
The easements shook and shuddered sore,
He ranged the high walls round and round;
My chamber rocked from roof to floor
And all the darkness throbbed with sound.
The wintry dawn rose faint and slow,
He turned him to the frozen lea,
And aye he moaned and muttered low
Along the uplands to the sea.
Sulen and slow the Sea Wind sped;
"Oh, never doubt the day shall he
When / shall come again." he said,
"And you come forth and follow me.
1.-THE lair of Night shall be your bed,
And fast and far your ghost shall fee,
When you are one with all the Dead
That roam the wide world round with me-"
