Our Heavenly Editor of the Pacific
Commercial Advertiser
wish you to put these verses on your
precious papers,
Though these are mistaken Or unpoet-
ical lines:
Because 1 came from the far-off isles
bearing the name of Nippon,
And I am the son of cherry blossoms
on the bank of Sumida;
am working in the garden and teach-
ing many boys at Moiiliili,
And 1 want to let Americans know our
strange ideas of these lines.
Your faithful pupil,
KAMEKICHI HAMADA.

Cor Two Ladies)
In the chilling bushes of winter
The sweet voices are fed there
On the snowy land of Lapland.
The song of MUSES. are sang there.
In the decorated room like summer
The Satans and Snakes are creeping,
In the perfumed palor adulterers are
walking
On the soft carpet snails put out their
horns.
Behind the odorous vestures there are
Evils thorns, shadows and adulteries,
Beneath the white skins black muscles
Make the shield for the honor.
After the congregation of sacred day
The satanic people play the comedy.
The men make the mouths OF fishes,
The ladies wear the vestures of
Angels
But they can not diver into the wave,
And they can not fly into the sky
Though their eyes only twinkle,
Though their hearts shake themselves.
Their hearts look at vanities
Their eye. gaze upon the vultures,
They fly into the darkness beneath;
And their understandings are taken.
God breaketh the shady place,
Lord lifteth up in the darkness
His rods to drive the demons
Then all people can not stand
They must creep into the holes,
And can not see the bright sun,
And the stars on the heaven
And the skies that far roll
Someone has the Holly Bible.
Someone has the sacred Hymnal.
The others sing the sweet Psalms,
The others play the high organ.
But those solemn tunes do not stop
In the spoiled dusty. white ears
The voices of Davids songs can no.
