Queens,

Just like a queen, sure, she carries
the head Of her
Ay. and her hair is crown Of bright
gold!
Just like a Queens is the pose and
the tread Of her
Just like a Queen in a story Of old.
Queen 7--there's not one in the world
to compare with her.
Never Queen beauty's sceptre could
bear with her.
Never a Queen beauty's diadem wear
with her,
She is so stately, so proud-and so
cold!
Faith, she may freeze whom she
pleases with her coldness, then,
I'm for maid Of mellower mien,
One who won't sneer at or jest at my
boldness, when
I'll be confessing how foolish I've
been.
She's not a Queen-no. but she's got
q way with her
She has the mildness and sweetness
of May with her,
Faith, tits myselfll be thripping away
with her
Sure, tits a wife a man wants. not
q Queen!

Iconoclast!
Howe'er be this, thou standest still a

A very spirit, as it were. evolved out

But thou, o mystic pillar tower! still

Pillar Towers Of ireland.

Who placed thee here, o pillar tower ::
thus mystical and lone
Gray relic Of severed past-its chron-
icle in stone!
The wisdom of the centuries has
groped round thee in vain,
But like the sphinx on Egypt's sand
thou mystery doth remain.
When were those stones thus chiselled
out, this quaint doorway to
frame?
Or did they grace thee, pillar-pile! ere
Rome had yet a name?
Or ere the Delphic temple to the famed
Diana rose?
Or ere on hills of Greece were heard
the twang of sounding bows?
No legend even clings to thee, to say
or when or why,
Or by whose skill thou raised vert
thus graceful to the sky;
No legend. even in a land with leg
ends flowing DER.
To say what race Of men built thee in
mystic days Of yore!
Was 1t the fiery Firbolg, skilled in
depth of magic lore?
Or Tuatha dc Danann bold, or yet a
race which lived before?
Or vert thou to the Sun-god built in
this sequestered vale,
An altar high to worship at. by Chill
dren OF the Gael?
Did Patrick on his Ulster route from
Tara's storied hill,
Where he had lit the pascal fire which
burns in Ireland still,
His sanity steps turn hitherward
where rolls Boynes silent flood.
And gaze on thee, as do now, in rev.
erential mood?
And did he climb this spiral stair e'er
to its topmost height,
