THE GLORY OF THE GARDEN.
Our England is a garden that is full of stately views, Of borders, bods and shrubberies and lawns and avonuos, With statues on the terraces and peacocks strutting by: But the Glory of the Garden lies in more than moote the oys,
For where the old thick laurels grow, along the thin rod wall, You'll find the tool and polting-sheds which are the heart of all, { The cold-frames and the hot-houses, the dung-pits and the
tanks,
The rollers, calls and drain-pipos, with the barrows and the
planks.
And there you'll soo the gardeners, the men and 'prontico boys Told off to do as they are hid and do it without noise:
For, except when seeds are planted and washout to scare the
birds,
The Glory of the Garden it nhideth not in words,,
*
And some can pot begonias and some can bad a rose,
And some are hardly fit to trust with anything that grows; But they can roll and trim the lawns and sift the sand and
