THE EASTERN So,
BY Harry Prihgle For
Author of History of Old MAI
Church, Etc.

Respectfully dedicated to the Rev.
l.. +. Bowen, d. d., and John S.
McMaster, Esq, typical Eastern
Shore lovers.)
God made thee fair, dear Eastern
Shorei
Thy children gather round thee;
A loyal band, they sing thy praise
And with their love they crown
thee.
There is to them no finer place.
From Cecil to Northampton.
For all the homelier joys of life
Or for man to camp on.
Along thy eastern borders beat
Atlantic's booming pillows,
While on the west fam'd Cheasa-
peake
Thy bosom gently pillows;
The balsam Of the piney woods,
The ozone of the waters,
The tonic of the balmy air,
Keep strong thy sons and daugh-
tiers.
The rivers wind among the fields,
Through meadows and through
marshes;
The forest branches seem to form
Cathedral shapes and arches;
The fertile farms their harvests yield,
The trees with fruit are bending,
a grateful people bow the knee,
Their thanks to heaven ascending.
We love thy fragrant spring-tid
bloom,
The hum Of bees in clover,
The joyous notes of happy birds,
The blue sky bending over;
The winsome grace of summer days,
The twilight's wondrous glories,
The mystic spell of starry nights,
The charm of old-time stories.
We love thy autumn's matchless
haze.
When natures magic touches
TO beauty give glory rare,
Amidst October's bushes;
Then come DEFENDERS ice and snow,
The skating and the sleighing,
The wild fowl. oysters. evergreens,
Thy wintry charms betrayine
But most we love thy people good
Wholesouled sincere, and we;
ing
The impress of conscience clear
And only i'll deeds fearing,
Then here's to thee, fair Easter
Shore.
May Gods great goodness bless
thee
As long as bay and ocean blue
Continue to caress thee
