WILD THYME.
Shall I over, shall I never, At ihe sunset chime, Know the bliss revealed By that seaside field Of the rich wild thyme? Shall I ever, shall I never, Take that purple way "Where the foot oft prest On the lark 8 hid nest At the shut of day? Shall I ever, shall I never. See the shadows change 'Neaib the sun's red car, Or the one lone star Over western range? >» Shall I ever, shall I never, Never moie behold All the gulf deep-dyed, All the my6tio iide, rose and gold? Shall I ever, shall I never, Find her stair, and climb High an Phantasy? Once it rose for me (Haunting memory) ' From the sweet wild thyme. — KOSLTJf. Auckland.
