That lie to the south, -come down and see

Like clustered stars, and the heart grows light
Quaffing the odorous winds like wine,
In the drowsy hush of the autumn night.

The Lord He lOveth all men, and so
Would lead their feet into ways divine,
But He counteth him best who tolls below
In the peaceful shade of the Noble Vine.
Then come to the south where the vineyards are
And the prodigal bloom Of the orchard burns
Against the blue, like rising star,
Wherever the raptursd vision turns:
Come down where the younger Egypt stands,
Like princess under her apple-tree,
Holding alOft in her plenished hands
The gift Of the centuries yet to be.

Ode to Spring.

/ Weakened to the SINGING Of bird;
I heard the bird OF spring.
And 10.
At his sweet note
The flowers began to grow,
Grass, leaves. and everything,
As IL the green world heard
The trumpet of his tiny throat
From end TO end, and winter and despair
Fled at his melody, and passed In air.
i heard at dawn the music Of voice,
o Ing beloved, then | said, the spring
Can visit only once the waiting year;
The bird can bring
Only the seasons song, nor his the choice
To waken smiles or the remembering tear!
But thou dOst bring
Springtime to every day, and at thy call
The flowers OF life unfold, though leaves Of au.
tumn fall.
