A LOST PARADISE.
(ire™ fields and young faces, Sunshine and flowers— All, in far-off fairy places, Onco they were ours ! Now, when cares nnd crow's-feet thicken, Bimvn locks are tfray, Do the hedgerows .lomewhoro thicken, Flushing with May? Arn tho buttercups us golden ? Dotht) liitrabolls chime In those meadows of the olden lilossud tiiiioV Look, how cold that sky above 113 ! Ah inu ! To walk Where thedasies know and love up, And the sparrows t:iik ! Hu.sh ! the wistful children heed us, Pausing in their play ! Darlings, tako our hands and lead us — Yon know the way. itFDKHiC'KIiAMiuiiiGK, in the Spectator.
