THE STORM KING

(By MfS. +. 1. IOftef.J
OH Il gruff old king is the king of
storm.
OF fearful face and hideous form
And he sits enthroned in his mountain
home.
Where the wild beasts crouch and men Is
lost souls roam.
And he pierces the sky with his fierce
weather eye.
And the tall pines sigh and the waves
moan and cry.
Then he puffs puff from his pipe CT
clay,
And the smoke flies like feathers away,
away,
And it swoops right down on the river
and town.
And it heaps the valley with frozen
down.
Where the huddled children are crying
for fire,
And the price for bread and for wood
goes higher.
OH q fierce old king is the king of
storm;
AS he mutters in wrath and outstretches
his form
TO clutch at the pitful idols of men,
And to grind them back into dust
again.
So he plumbers the hearths and the
hearts of men,
And their broken hopes tosses to wreck
heaps Then
Like warrior returned from the chase
he brings
Back his ghastly trophies of pluuder-
ings.
And he gloats DER the wreck heaps
along his way,
But he hears not and fears not the
hearts that pray.
Know the length and the strength OF
my good right arm,
You shall crouch in fear meath its pow.
er to harm.
So he boasts and he smokes in his crvs.
tai hall,
tomorrow may open his faucets all,
And his anger iu torrents of water fall
To sweep us forever beyond recall.
80 We know not today what tomorrow
will be
For the old king's temper is mystery.
Yes perehonee ON the morrow a dove
may bring
ing.
And the sun set the palace of crystal
on fire.
And the old king smile from its funeral
pyre.
But the king at last wcories Of wreck
aud OF moan,
And he sighs "Though king T'm han.
Ply alone.
And his sigh floats down to the whis.
pering sea-
To the souls that his wrath has swept
ont to the sea.
Repcntant it calls through the deep sea
halls,
Through old ocean s thunders like
music it falls.
And up out Of the depths comes an ans.
wcring voice
As q radiant form bids the world re.
ioicc.
Up and out from the sea run her her.
aids i'm glee,
Shouting loud TO the fields and TO men
"Re free"-
On and up TO the mountains on FLYING
feet.
Up and on to the king with the message
sweet,
But the old king blustcrs, "I'm the
king on the throne"
Then the sad echo answers, "Alone,
alone. -
So he bids her be welcome to palace
and hall
And again hears her answer like music
fall.
Ia her soft robes Of state all in gold
aud green
And her trailing mist veil slowly ON
comes the queen.
! And the faircst flowers spring meath
her soft falling feet,
And the tallcst trees bend her loved
torn TO greet,
In humility comes she to bow to the
king,
And the wreck heaps all blossom. the
broken hearts sing.
rhcn the old king beckous "Come share
my thronen
Hide the past with thy grcenness. Ia
