The following is to be sung vocif-

the Bows"
Away from the town and its worry,
From life and it's struggles away;
How happy and peacefulthe moments
So passed on fair April day.
Where falls the tall sycamore'sshadow
On eddy just spotted with foam,
Where down in the depths of the
water
The gamy black bass has its home.
To lie on the sward with the duets,
TO list to the orioles song,
TO breathe the sweet air of the forest,
No day can be ever too long.
