here SPOTTED FAWN It was Wl a hundred years yearl ago When by the woodland way The traveler saw law the wild deer drink or Dr crop the spray Beneath a hill whose rocky side oer o'er bowered a grassy mead And fen fenced red a cottage from the wind A deer was wont to feed She only came when on the mead The evening evening- moonlight lay and no man knew the secret haunt in which she walked by day White were her hr feet HeY Uh forehead showed a spot of silvery silvers white That seemed to glimmer like lIk a star Itar In autumns autumn's hasty halty night And as here sang ung th the whippoorwill She cropped cropped the sprouting leaves leave And here her rust rust Ing steps wr were heard of It still III October eves eve Once In autumns autumn's golden time she Ih rang the wild wid Invade And found the pheasant nor the deer and wandered home again Next evening shown the waxen moon Beside the silvery footed deer there ther grazed a spotted fawn The cottage dame forbade her son Ion t taim to aim the rifle rille here It were a sin she said laid to harm barm o or Dr fright that friendly deer This spot has hll been my pleasant home horn ten peaceful years yean and more And ever when the moonlight shines shine she feeds feed before our door I love to watch her as al she feeds am and think that all Is well While such a gentle creature haunts haunt the place In which we dwell Next evening shone the waxen moon a as al sweetly as al before The deer upon the grassy rany mead wa was wal feeding full In sight lIe He raised the rifle to his hla eye and nd from the cliffs around A sudden sudden ludden echo shrill and sharp gave back its deadly sound lound Away Into the neighboring wood th the startled creature flew And crimson drops of moisture lay amid the glimmering dew Next evening shone the waxen moon a as al sweetly as before The deer upon the grassy grany mead wa was wal seen again no more The red men say that here she sh walked a thousand years yea ago They never raised the war whoop herand here her and never swayed the bow At night the red men came and burnt burn the cottage to the ground And slew the youth and nd dame daae malt mall It to you 2 About 16
