ONLY A SONG.
It was only a simple ballad, Sang to a carelege throng
There was none that knew the singer, And low that heeded the song, Yot the singer's voice we tender And sweet as with love untold Surely those hearts, were hardened That it loft so proud and cold.
She sang of the wondrous glory
That touches the wonds in spring, Of the strange, aoul-stirring voices
When the bila break forth and sing j Of the happy birds,low warbling
The requiem of the day, And the quiet hush of the valleys
In the dusk of the glossing gray,
And one
one in a distant corner- A woman worn with strife-
Heard in that sorg a message
From the spring-time of her life. Fair fornie poap before hor
From the mist of vanished yours; She sat in a happy blinduars,"
For
royes were voiled in tears.
Thou, when the sang was ended,
And hushed the Inst'sweet tune, The listener ruse up aoitiy-
And went on her way alone. Once moto to her life of labour
