The Valley Road.

At eventide l shade my eyes
And peer into the west
Where, winding down the shining plain,
And round each wooded crest,
The highroad goes the sunset way,
Upon the endless quest
Full many a traveller I have seen
(And one was passing fair)
Go down the valley from my door,
And swiftly vanish there,
Some l have sped upon their path,
And lightened some of care
One day 1 too shall take my staff
And down the valley go,
For one who went was passing fair,
And waits for me, / know,
And shall find hero my SOUL
Beyond the sunset glow!

The Burro.
The burro is a tiny beast,
No bigger than a st. Bernard
But he can haul an awful load
Ger any road, however hard
He weighs about three hundred pounds
And he can carry on his back
Six hundred pounds OF copper ore
Tied up securely in a sack.
We lazy mortals ought to learn
A lesson from this little beast;
: We groan and moan at every turn
When we are burdened in the least.

Who squirm around and rail at fate,
If each Of us were now and then
Obliged to carry twice our weight?
