to love this old world with its Sun,
Moon, and its armament of Stars.
With its seasons, with it's disap-
pointments, its successes, and its
tribulations, and / believe all of us
would take a dip in that fountain,
should such an opportunity ever
exist. make this assertion by
judging from what / have seen and
experienced in my life. The num-
bers / have seen at springs with
grey heads and faltering steps,
who have come here to get out of
the cold and lengthen out their
days. From the cripples and wheel
chairs I pass on the street. Of
paralysed persons in their hands
or their feet,
And people whose minds have too
long run in ruts,
Until cold public has classed
them as nuts.
This is the haven where all of them
run,
To walk in the park and to sit
in the sun.
With a diet of fish, that most
doctors maintain,
Is good for the stomach and
best for the Brain.
But / must go back to my story
of Ponce de Leon, when he finally
reached the mainland it was Easter
Sunday, and there was so many
flowers in bloom in the woods, he
called the land of Florida. But he
did not find the Fountain he was
looking for in all his search, but
an Indian Arrow found him and
caused his death. This brings us
back to realities and makes us
consider as we grow older, that
with all our experience, with all we
have read and knowing that all of
the surface of this world has been
discovered, that there. is no such
fountain, and does not exist. ex-
cept that Fountain filled blood
drawn from Immanueps veins. But
the old sooth-sayer might claim his
prophecy was correct and he was
speaking of his death and like the
old Oracle at Ephesus, where the
GODDESS of Diana was located, that
people used to consult before at
tempting any great thing. It's an

suit would obtain, but after the
performance was over, if it went
against them, they could then look
back and remember the words of
the Oracle, and the interpretations
would be entirely different to
them, and they would say the
Oracle was right, and now my
story is done of Florida
That lays beneath a Southern Sun,
Below the line that Dixon run,
That line was run from tree to
tree,
In seventeen hundred and
sixty-three.
This line was run to divide two
men,
And one of them was William
Penn,
The other man who took a hand,
Was Lord Baltimore of Mary
land,
And like Jonah of the olden time,
Who sat and watched beneath
his vine,
l too sit here to write this tale,
For here is the vine, and out
there is the whale.
