44 Maxime Labelle " 55 Wall all de tarn, she go lak dat, was busy every day, Don't get moche chance for foolish-ness, don't get no chance for play, Dere 's plaintee danger all aroun', an' w'en we 're comin' back We got look out for run heem safe, dem sapr£ Catarack.
But w'ere 's de war ? I can't mak' out, don't see no fight at all!
She 's not'ing but une Grande Piqnique, dat *s las' in all de fall!
Mebbe de neeger King he 's scare, an' skip anoder place, An' pour la Reine Victoriaw! I never see
... de face.
But dat 's not ma beez-nesse, ma frien', I 'm ready pull batteau So long she pay two dollar day, wit' pork an' bean also ; An' if she geev me steady job, for mak' some more l'argent, I say, " Hooraw! for all de tarn, on Queen Victoriaw! " O SPIRIT of the mountain that speaks to us to-night, Your voice is sad, yet still recalls past visions of delight, When 'mid the grand old Laurentides, old when the earth was new, With flying feet we followed the moose and caribou.
And backward rush sweet memories, like frag- ments of a dream, We hear the dip of paddle blades, the ripple of the stream, Memories 57 l he mad, mad rush of frightened wings from brake and covert start, The breathing of the woodland, the throb of nature's heart.
