WOMAN and
SOCIETY,".

The voice of one who goes before to
make
The paths of June more beautiful, is
thine,
Sweet May! Without an envy of her
crown
And bridal; patient stringing emer-
And shining rubics for the brows of
And maple; fiinging garlands of pure
white
And pink, which to their bloom add
prophecy;
Gold cups o'em-filling on thousand
hills,
And calling honey-bees; out of their
sleep
The tiny summer harpers with bright
wings
Awaking, teaching them their notes
Oh. May, sweet-voiced one, going thus
before,
For ever June may pour her warm red
wine
OF life and passion-sweeter days are
thine!
