FALL CHOPISTERS.

In May. when robins put their souls
In ecstacies of song,
And when the golden Orioles.
Are warbling all day long,
When blue birds sing upon the wing,
And Gown beyond the lane,
The I. oGest hermit thrushes ring
Their resonant refrain,
The katydid hides in the wall;
Though great is his ambition,
He never makes a sound at all
There too much competition.
TIE ,trument on which he plays
His Ung and vibrant notes,
Can never emulate the lays
That pour from feathered threats,
He knows that if perchance ne should
Grow vocal, i'm the Spring,
No one in all the neighborhood
Could ever hear him sing.
But when the birds have piped their
last
Until another year,
And summer days are waning fast,
The katydids appear.
Across the road, and up the hill,
Here, there, and far and wide,
Their violins with music fill,
The peaceful countryside:
Though all the birds that used to call
So pyful'y are dumb,
We still have music through the fall.
The katydids have come!
