AUGUSTA LOCALE.
Scnus OF Bird and Poet.

A bird of richest song flew out
And piped his carol full of cheer.
And long he winged his way about.
But few would wait his song to near.
With sorrow, in his lonely nest,
He hid his sweet song in his breast.
But some had heard that song of JOY;
1t came and soothed the panSS OF pam
Gave hope where doubt rose to destroy
Despairing souls tried once again.
If lifted hearts all tempest-tossed-
That song, though stilled, was never lost.
\ noet, no one knew him then.
Sang out his carol full of cheer.
OF hope and faith and love for men
But few woiild wait his song to near.
The poet? He is dead, But yet
The SONGS he sang no hearts forget.
