BALLAD OF THE BICYCLE.

My steed's of finest fettle
And eager for the fray
A horse OF matchlesS mettle,
he never runs away.
/ use him for my pleasure:
He's always at my call;
I find in him treasure;
l never have tall.
He never jumps the traces
Or spills you on the ground;
He gallops trots or PAGES,
so gentle, stanch and sound,
He does not need u stable,
No fodder will he eat;
He's swifter than the cable
That growIs along the street.
You'll find him always ready
And standing by your side;
He rolls along so steady,
A cOmrade true and tried;
Ger hills and leafy places
You scurry on his back;
The steep ascent he faces
And.never leaves the track.
Some sing of frisky FLIES
That prance as Shod with air,
And brulse the iiSsome lilies
That languish 10 tneir lair.
Some sing OF FLASHING pauqle
That guides the trim canoe;
Give me the sloping saddle,
For it will see you through.
IT'S sweet o wheel the distance
Astrlde your silent steed,
To spurn the earths resistance,
To trample brier or weed.
How smooth the road is cleaning,
Arched with the leafy boughs,
A dainty time for dreaming,
a time for lovers vows.
How green the grass is growing;
Each blade is gemmed with dew;
The chattering brook is showing
Cool spray of crystal hue.
The breeze from oil the prairie
Is fraugnt with balm divine,
When summers moods will vary,
Charged with the odorous pine.
Meath dewy dawn of morning
You wheel DER hill and plain,
The rising sun is scorning
The mists that veil the rain.
Trim, saucy birds are fiinging
Their carols on the air,
CnlcagO'S chimes are ringing,
Their keen delight you share.
How sweet the morning air is,
1t tastesaike amber wine;
The mounting mist how rare is,
A panopIy oivine.
The joys the riders capture
/ wish / could reveal
The richest of all rapture,
To ride whirring wheel.
