THE msTLEToE BouGH
BY Thomas Haynes Bayly
The mistletoe hung in the castle hail.
The holly branch shone on the old oak wall.
And the baron's rctainers were blithe and
gay.
And keeping their Christmas holiday;
Tho baron heheld. with a fathers pride
His beautiful child. young LoveiIs bride.
While she. with her bright eyes. seemed to be
The star Of the goody company.
Oh, the mistetoe boush!
I'm weary OF dancing now" she cried,
Here tarry a moment--Tll hide, I'll hide 1!
And, Lowell be sure thou'rt first to trace
The clue to my secret hiding place."
Away she ran-and her friends began
Each tower to search, and each nook to scan
And young Lowell cried. "Oh, where dost
thou hide?
rm lonesome without thee. my own dear
BRIDE
oh. the mstletoe bough.
They sought her that night. and they sought
her next day,
And they sought her in vain, till a week
pass'd away!
