In Lovefsland the skies are blue,
Or barred with rosy clouds between,
The flowers are fairer far Of hue
Than ever flowers OF earth were seen;
And all day long through meadows green
Beside the river, hand in nand,
Walk youths and maidens Of gentle mien-
In Loversland, in LOrersland-
And some there are that lightly streW
With roses all the way serene,
And some that pleasant Odors brew
From elder-dOwer and egiantipe:
And others still, In dell and dene,
With brows the kindly sun has tanned,
Who SOW the grain and harvest CLEAN
In Logerslsnd, in LOversiand.
Don Cupid schools merry crew
Beneath the beeches' leafy screen,
And bids each ardent swain construe
The glances from his mistress cen:
No harder task than this, ween,
Was ever there for scholar planned,
TO sing and serve his fancy's queen
In Loverslaud, In L0versiaud.

which at that time there were no charts), on
the morning Of July IL, 1863. To avenge re-
