A Legend.
OONCE there dwelt a singer in a valley faraway, Who in the fields with loving art awoke his lute and lay.
A Now though his song, nor loud nor long, was strangely sweet to hear, One day he said, while on his cheek there gleamed a silent tear : " My note is low, my strain is weak, my singing all in vain; The little guerdon I desire I cannot hope to gain. ^ " I do not care for lofty fame, for wealth I do not long— I only wish my fellow-men to love me for my song ! " THE SINGER'S REWARD.
...The kindly zephyrs caught his lays and bore them far and wide, " Such songs were never sung before !" the people rose and cried.
The great king even listened in his palace by the sea, And said, " Some day we'll send for him and honored he shall be." Alas, no herald ever came, the ancient legend saith ; But when he put his lute away and laid him down in death, The people made a great a-do, and reared a column high, In honor of the singer they had left in want to die.
THE FLIGHT OF SUMMER.
SO gently did sweet Summer pass me by, So lovely was the smile she cast, Lulled by her beauty I Scarce knew she passed.
