. A Fair Foe @
By GEORGE SIGERsON.
THERE'S a shade or my soul


l And my heart is in dole
From pearly day dawning till soft even
air.
With love for the white
Fresh Flower OF Delight
With love for the Maid OF the fair
flowing hair.
Her mind is a dove.
And the wit Of my love
Is more supple and swift than bird
on the wing;
More sweet is her mouth
Than wine OF the South
Or all the hill honey that Greek poets
sing.
To the dewdrops below
Her golden curis flow
See the fame Of the berry her smooth
cheek upon!
In each little ear,
That no picture could peer.
There snarkles a jewel as bright a.
the sun
Over earth far and wide
Could I choose me a bride
And wed a RIGA daughter OF royalty's
line:
Through life she could be
But sorrow to NE
For tire Flower @. the World has this
