STRAIGHT.
He who serves the Commonweal Must not see, nor hear, nor feel; For the hounds are at his back, And the wolves are on his track ; Speed he must at any cost, If he falter, he is lost; Till the victory i® won Straight the course that he must run He who serves the Commonweal Must not see, nor he.;r. nor feel; For a feast his lovers make, Lure him back hi, t~> tnke; Feast of friend-ship and of flowers, Underneath the shehering bowers; If he falter, he will flee, Ease is not for ns he; Till tho victory is won Straight the coarse that he must run —ILate Sherwood.
