THE SONGS OF THE WIND.
How sings the wind in the splendid day
When the world is wild with the wealth OF MayS
"The world is thrilling with light and love
There was never a cloud in the heavens ABOVE:
Never mateless and moaning dove!
Never grave for rose TO hlde'
And never rose that died!
How sings the wind in the hopeless night
When the lone, long winters are cola ana whitsE
"There are rainbows back of the storms to be-
Back of the storms and their mystery
Bu O. for the the ships mat IG lonesome oSa lands
Far from the clasp Of the drowning hands!'
SO the wind singeth: Its God DEGREES
The wind should sing such songs as tnese-
Should laugh in the sunlght's silver waves so.
And toss the green on the worlds SAD graves
But why. in the night, should it sing to me
OF the ships-the ships that are lost az sea.
