IN SCHOOL DAYS.
Btül site the school-hansa by the road,
A ragged beggar einning; Around It still the sumachs grow,
And blackberry vines are running. Within, the master's desk is seen, Deep scarred by raps official; The warping floor, the battered seats,
The jack-knife's carved initial. The churocal frescoes on its walls: It's door's worn sill, betraying The feet that creeping slow to cohool, Went storming out to playing..
Long years ago a winter sub Ehone over it at setting; Lit up its western window panes And low eaves' icy fretting.
It torched the tangled golden curls And brown eyes, full of grieving, Of one who still her steps delayed
When all the school were leaving. For near her stood the little boy Her obildish favor singled; His cap pulled low upon a face
Where pride and shame were mingled..
Pushing with restless feet the snow To right and left, he lingered; As resticaly ber tiny hands
The blue-checked apron fingered.
He saw her lift her eye; he felt: The soft handa light onressing, And heard the tremble of her voico,
As if a fault confessing.
I'm sorry that I spelt the word; I hate to go above you, Because "the brown eyes lower foll-
"Because, you see, I love you !"
Still memory to a gray-haired man
That sweet child face is showing; Dear girl! the grasses on her grave Have forty years been growing, He lives to learn in life's hard school,
How few who pass above him, Lament their triumph and his loas,
Like her because they love him. John G. Whittier.
