Bicycle Song.

Bicycle song.
Light upon the redal,
Firm upon the seat,
Fortunes wheel in letters
Fast beneath our feet,
Leave the clouds behind US.
Split the wind we meet,
Swift, OH. swift and silent,
Rolling down the street!
When the dark comes, twinkling
Like fireflies 10 the wheat,
Bells before us tiDkling
Fairly and fleet
By the gate Of gardens,
Where the dusk is sweet,
Slide like appari'ioDs
Through the startled street,
Spcarmen in the desert
Maybe fly as fleet
Nor5licrn lights in heaven,
Sparkle Oh the sleet!
Swift, oh, swift and silent.
Just before we greet
The outer edge of nothing
Turn rolling up tie street,
Harriet Prescott Spofford IN st. Nicholas.
-
My Old Coat.
Come down from the hook. my old f;.ll coat,
Where she hung You months ago.
When my Melton took the place you filled
With the first light fall of snow.
How little we dreamed, when she put you
there.
Ere the cold. bleak days had fled.
That her soft. white h anus would he clasped
in peace.
And her sweet. bright smile be dead.
There 'sa little silk thread on yOurright lapel,
Which her needle kissed one day;
But the rose she pinned OIL your other side
Like her spirit, has pined away.
There a dent on Your breast above my heart,
Where she slept the short night through.
When we drifted along by the stars faint
light.
In the stern Of my old canoe
Go back 10 your b ook. my old fall coat,
With your memories fraught with pain;
For bleak as the winds OF the fall do blow
never can wear you again.
