\ Fairy Grave.
Let little grave be made.
Half in shadow. half in shade,
In a quiet. kindly place,
Friendly as her face
Let the passing fairy bird
From his airy height be heard;
Ever, ever for that ground
Only gentle sound
Let the singing winds, which be
Winged dream and melody,
Singing softly. by her lie,
Softly singing, die
Let the bee has sucked the bloom
Homeward journey by her tomb.
And his 1.-THE of sweet be paid
To her sweeter shade.
Let the low clouds. red and gold.
Mourn her on the mountains old:
Beauty. a$e her guardian be.
You and Melody
Spirits of sound and souls of flowers
Al! You dearest griefless powers,
You with whom she went away.
Tend her night and day

Why ls Il. when we're loaded
Down with bundles small and great
The one we drop Is always
An expensive china plate
