THE HEART’S DESIRE 7 +*+■ THE ROBIN’S SONG. Last night I heard a robin singing in the rain, And the raindrops’ patter made a sweet refrain, Awaking all the sweeter the music o'f the strain. So, 1 thought, when trouble comes, as trouble will, Why should I stop singing ? Just beyond the hill It may be that sunshine Hoods the green world still. • Ho who faces trouble with a heart of cheer Makes the burden lighter. If there falls a tear, Sweeter is the' cadence in the song we hear. I have learned your lesson, bird of dappled wings, Listening to your music with its lilt of spring, When the storm-cloud darkens, then’s the time to sing. —Eben E. 11 ex ford. -X- * * -XPatience is tlie ehiefest fruit of study.
