NEW SLETS S.
My lady has returned TO town
And brought "A sylvan sweetness
hither:
Her cheeks reflect a rustic brown
That city ways too soon will wither;
But roses glow beneath the tan
The blooms that dazzled us last win
ter
And soon the potent social ban
To proper pink and white will tint
her.
My lady has a graceful pace
That hints OF walks i'm highways ru-
raj.
But soon Dame Fashion will displace
The stride with mincing intramural,
The freedom OF the woods is gone,
And in the seasons fare and fash
ion
My lady, brilliant as the dawn.
A queen will be for gems to fash on.
All, me. we stroled at the resort"
And talked in accents low and tender;
But now, of course. / must cavort,
With arm about her waist, or lend
her
The friendly guidance Of my hand
Throughout the germans weary
mazes.
And trust TO luck she'll understand
The love that warns my formal
phrases.
