THE WHITE THRON.
High on still unbudded Dough,
You sing your measured song;
The wilderness Is with me now,
A thousand memories throng.
The breathless grove, the windy hill
With peoples all astir;
The wayside rose. the tinkling rill,
The flash Of wing and fur.
The river, done with wandering,
The silver, silent shore;-
These come before me while you sing,
These things. and many more.
Your Music in the haunts OF them
Is sweet as April's sun;
But oh, 1t Is as sweet again
Where unnamed waters run.
For in the brush the birds are few
That have the gift Of song;
And SO my heart goes out to you,
The woodland way along.
