violets in the valley, bird songs in the airj
The chilly winds have only blown the iily's

It's summer in the world. my dear, and sum

For all the gray skies glooming it's summer
in the dells;
In the merry song of reapers, in the tinkiing
of the bells;
The sweet south skies are Frightening as with
springtime's magic art
But the sweetest summer, dearest, is the sum-
mer in the heart!
still, still the birds are singing, and still the
groves are green.
And still the roses redden and the loyal lilies
lean;
Love fades not with the season; when sum-
mer days depart
It's summer still, my dearest, in the Eden OF
the heart! IF. r. Stanton.
