THE ROADS OF OLD.

The roads OF old. how fair they cleaned.
How long each winding way was deS,aeds
In days gone by how wondroua high
Their little hills and houses seemed.
The morning road that led 60 school
Was framed In dew, that ciuns as cool
To childish feet rs waves that beat
About the sunbeams IA pool;
The river road that cropt beside easa-s
The dreamy alder-bofderVd tide.
Where fish AT play on Saturday
Left some young hopes ungratined;
The valley road that wandered through
Twin wales and heard no wind that blew.
The COW bella elank from either bank
Was all the noise II ever knew.
The village road that used 10 drop 4
Its daisies at tho blacksmith shop
And leave some trace OF rustic grace
To tempt the busiest eye 60 stop,
The woodland road whosc wlndings dim
More known 10 watchers straight and slim.
How slow Il moved, as 1t It loved
Each listening leaf and arching limb;
The market road that felt the charm
or rghta on many a sleepy farm.
When whirring clock and growing cock
Gave forth the marhvtman alarm.
These all renew their oldou spoil. X,
With rocky olifT and sunny dell
With purilng brook and grassy nook.
They hordcrod childhood's country well.
Aud we who near them used to dwell

That on them went oung~cyvd Content
They hordrred childhood country we'll.
