viz, a due regard for his wife's prop

to freeing the dover negroes as he
calls them; a wish to free all his own

as he did to the cutting down OF the
cherry tree. But the series of sigma
lures there, one written when he was
surely under nine years OF age, and the
others written when he was IL and IL
years of age, appeal with singular ten
acity to the mind, as do even the love-
lorn ditties of his later boyhood when
he extolled the charms of the lowland
beauty in verse. The grandeur and
the dignity and the completely which
