THE STORM. As men's cheeks faded On shores invaded, When shoreword waded

The lords of fight; When churt and craven Saw hard on haven The wide-winged raven

At mainmast height; When monks affrighted To windward sighted The birds full-flighted

Of swift sea-kings;

Bo earth turns paler When Storm, the sailor, Steers in with a roar in the race of his wings,

O, strong sea-sailor,

Whose check turns paler For wind or bail or

For fear of thee?

O, far sea-faror,

O, thunder-bearer, Thy songs are rarer

Than soft songs be. O, flest-foot siranger, O, north-sea ranger, Through days of danger

And ways of fear, Blow thy horn here for us, Blow the sky clear for us, Eend us the song of the sea to hear. --Swinburne,

MEASURING THE BABY. We measured the riotous baby.

Against the sottage-wall

A Lily grew on the threshold,

And the boy was just as tall;

A royal tiger lily,

With spots of purple and gold, And a heart like a jewelled chalice

The fragrant dew to hold. Without, the bluebird whistled High up in the old roof-trees, And to and fro at the window

The red rose rocked her bess; And the wee pink fists of the baby

Were never a moment still, Snatching at shine and shadow

That danced on the lattice sill.

His eyes were wide a bluebells,

moving, but after a time we may perosive that he has moved onwards.

We speak evil of others; and should we not fear the evil they may say of as? Speak ill of no neighbor, if thou would'st not hear what will trouble thee.

The good man feels no injustice so strongly as that done to others; that committed against himself, he sees not so clearly; the bad man feels only the injury to himself.

The habit of resolving without acting is worse than not resolving at all, inasmuch as it gradually snaps the natural connection between thought and deed...

We are paat our minority, it is true, but net our indiscretions; and what is worse, we have the authority of seniors, and the weak- ness of children.
