THE NEW ROAD.

Some verses, entitled "The New Road," contributed by Mildred Huxley to the "Spectator," are a spirited tribute to youth and high, endeavour:— When you have started forth towards your vision, When you have counted up the gain and cost, When you. have faced the old, old world's derision, Its scofiiug tale of all endeavours lost ; When all is &aid, leave it the sane, wise clinging, ■' : To proven ways you never can recall; It has not heard your golden trumpet ' ringing . O Pioneer, the end is worth it all. When by your cause you stand, its one defender, And hear the jeers and anger grow aioro loud, When greater men than you, ,gravu-eyed and tender, Look on your lone defiance from the crowd, Then, then the joy of battle surges in you, The splendour of the quite unequal strife, And all the strength of soul and brtin and sinew Proclaims that you will win, and this is Life! Madness and pride? Nay, never heed the sheu tin?.' The future's yours—can you not wait, O youth? ; In your divine conceit you know, undoubtinpti That you have found a fragment of ■ God's truth. ' • How shall you fail, how shall your faith diminish? —Faith less in self than in your splendid dream ?.- You heard God speak to you fi and at the finish ' -Far in tlie'East you saw your vision gleam.
