I "ENGLISH SUMMER." ; From the ; forest highways, I Dancing to a tune, Through the woodland byways Comes the Lady June. I Dwarf rue and rambler, (Dog rose or'rare,, Crowd into my garden When June is in the air. • Larks sing the June song I In the noonday bush; "June!" sings the blackbird, , WMtethroat, and thrush. * .From, the starry sky-ways i Shines the-Rummer moon; ' | Sleeping in my rose-bed j Lies the Lady June.
THE PANSY. AND THE DAISY. (Ordinal.) -, The pansy said to the daisy, "I pity you, poor thing! : ] nm the prettiest of all flowers — Of me, the poets sing! Ladies bind pan&tes in their hair, And lovers think them fair. But you are small, of common, hue, And no one cares at all for you." And then the little white daisy, That sparkled in the dewy morn. Looked up with serious face and said. "Tho little Lhlldrcn think mo Mvuct! I care not for worldly things— For love of ladles and of kings; One thing I know, all these above— I A littlo child's fresh, happy lo#c." \
