BLACK SHEEP.

From their folded mates they wander
far,
Their ways seem harsh and wild;
They follow the beck of a baletul star,
Their paths are dream 'begulled.
Yet haply they sought but a wider
range,
Some Ioftier mountain slope,
And little rocked OF the country
strange
Beyond the gates of hope.
And haply a bell with a Turing call
Summoned their feet to tread
Midst the cruel rocks, where the deep
pitfall
And the lurking snares are spread.
Maybe, in spite of their tameless days
OF outcast liberty,
They're sick at heart for the homely
ways
Where their gathered brothers be.
And oft at night, when the plains fall
dark
And the hills loom large and dim,
For the Shepherds voice they mutely
bark,
And their souls go out to him.
Meanwhile, "Black-sheepl black
sheep!" we cry,
Safe in the inner fold;
And maybe they hear, and wonder
why,
And marvel, out in the cold.
