Jaunt Phantoms haunt still paths where vigils brood
Over the dead, among deserted towers
VOICES seem calling through dim corridors
winding midst muffled maZes, strangely clear;
Foot-talls OF sprites resound on marble floors
And vanish in faint shadows gray and drcar
concealed IN deep recesses and draped rooms
Nature holds mute communion with the past
In hidden sanctumS of enchanted tombs,
Where voices lisp quaint odd and vast.
Through crystal arches and dark colonnades
Memory wanders musing she roves
In rvied robes looped up with russell braids
lntwined with jeweed wreaths of summers groves

The deep alluvial soil is better suited

ducts Of the small holdings Of ten acres.
This Is the reason for the profit shar-

The colony Is easily distinguished by
