AN ODE TO sAssAFRAs.

Z.
Comes one with words In praise OF
natures rarest root-the sassafras.
When March winds wane, and spring
with gentle wooirg breathes the
breath OF new life into herb and fruit
and flower. like ambroisal particles
waited afoft by gentle zephyrs, raises
the sap In the root Of the sassafras.
The sassafras, while not indigenous
to Marion county. is at It's best there,
where II flourishes with umgrageous
boughs above the aromatic appendages
under earth. fi5
Thought Of sassafras comes with
the spring. In fact the sassafras and
spring are one, and inseparable. Sas.
safras is springs affinity.
Solomon sang Of myrth, OF sweet In.
cense and endless precious spice. He
reveals In these costly ointments, and
thought himself rich. Yet Solomon
was beggar. He knew not sassafras.
We have never seen an authentic
menu showing the bills. Of fare upon
which feasted the gods of old. We are
told that they ate ambrosal and drank
nectar. Rare indeed. must.haye been
these gifts. But the tabled anclents
got not all the gifts rich and rare. Re-
served to us and for us is a gift more
precious than precious ointment.
Sweeter than myth, sweet as sweet
est incense.
who has not seen Rome has not
lived said an ancient sage. Who has
not let his lips taste the fragrant and
seductive sasafras may have lived, but
he has not known living at its best. \
Who has slipped insipid teas, who
has stepped himself in black coffee;
who has revealed in wines: who has
drunk deep from fathomless founts Of
crystal purity and has not tasted sas.
safras has missed that which he
should have had to have perfected
himself in knowledge OF one OF ma
lures rarest gifts to man. =. 3
