ANSELM AND THE HARE.

Anselm, the priest from Italy,
He whom the poet Dante named
The greatest saint in paradise,
He whose high wisdom Justly claimed
Obedience from monks and kings,
Rode, as It CHANGED upon a day,
Where stately English trees outstretched
Their spreading boughs along the way.
From out the wood there rushed hare,
With following huntsmen on her track;
A voice and hand were lifted up,
The good priest babe the men stand back.
They paused amazed, for, wild with fright,
The trembling creature swiftly sprang
Beneath his horse, az n she saw
Her hopes Of safety on him hang.
"Behoid," he spake with gentle voice,
How she beneath my horses feet
Hath sought refuge THINK We not
To send her safely forth wero moet
"In need man fees 10 God for aid
That mercy which he seeks on high,
Shall he not grant the timorous beast
That, fearful, shrinks afraid to der
Then sped the hare into the wood,
With bounding leaps and nerves a-strnin
And, with a blessing for each man,
hnselm, the priest, rode on again.

by the fact that the issue of the French
