THE TRAVELLED BCMBLE-BEE.

A bumble-bee belted with brown and gold
on purple clover sat;
His whiskers were shaggy, his clothes
were old
And he wore shabby hat;
But his song was loud, and his merry
eye.
Was full of laughter and fun,
AS he watched the bob-oblinks tlutter
by,
And spread his wings in the sun.
A butterfly spangled with yellow and red
Came flying along that way:
had two little feathers on his head,
And his coat was Quaker gray;
He carried a parasol made of blue,
And wore a purple vest:
And seeing a bumblebee. down he flew,
And lit on a daisy's crest.
Then from the grass by a messy stone
A cricket and beetle came;
One with black garb, while the other
shone
. Like an opals changing flame
A swaying buttercup's golden bloom
Bent down with the beetles weight.
And high on timothy's rounded plume
The cricket chirruped elate
The bumhle-bee sang. of distant lands
Where tropical rivers flow;
or wide seas rolling up SHINING sands,
And mountains with crowns of snow;
or great broad plains, with iower-gcms
bright,
or forests, whose fragrant slooms
Showed crumhling ruil q, shostly and
white
Old forgotten nations tombs.
Then wisely the beetle winked his eve.
The cricket grew stall and still
The butterfly. in his great surprise,
Went sailing over the hill;
The beetle scrambled beneath his stone.
The cricket, nc gave hop,
And there the bumhle-bec sat alone
On the purple clover top.
