The occasion was an informal 'evcn-

THE POWER OF POETRY.
sco;t's Description of the Chase and What
the Ordinary Man Would Hay. Said


the Ordinary Man Would Have said.
Take, rs u single instance of the pow
er of poetry. Walter SCOTS opening
lines in the Lady of the Lake, where
he describes the chase of the stag. The
stag escapes and evadcs his pursuers,
but what picture the great poet has
put into words!
Reduced to prose the ordinary obscrv-
er and writer would have said, They
chased the stag several miles, but lost
him in the Trosachs. He could not
possibly have said in prose:
The antlercd monarch of the waste
Sprung from his heathery couch In haste,
But ere his fleet career he took
The dewdrops from his fianks he shook;
Like crested leader. proud and high.
Toss'd his beamed frontlet 10 the sky:
a moment Gazc,i adown the dale,
A momci. snuffcd the tainted gale,
moment listened to the cry
That thcken'd as the chase drew nigh.
Then as the hcadmost foes appear'd.
With one brave bound the copse he clear'd,
And stretching forward free and far
sought the wild hcaths of Tam Var.
The poet began his picture with an
incident that only poet would have
thought worthy of words, but what a
picture the few words make!
The stag at eve had drunk his I'LL
Where danced the moon ON Monans rill,
And deep his midnight lair had made
In lone Gienariney's hazel shade.

Then it's wake, ye people all.

To other folks ''by by.''

And the birds in rapture sing,

In her bed at close ii day,
