Show FORMER DAYS By CHARLES E MILROY IN TTMES past, in days gone by, Wo walked together, you and I; Wc walked the footpath through thevnte Where fibril led tho throstle, called the l uail. We saw the still scfjuesterd spot, The cleft where lodged the huntor'fl cot; Where, housewife .sped her dally toil While luinter far pursued his spoil. Wo sat beside the sodgy pool Where ma i e spread its branches cool ; Wc saw the finn tribe below Jn armor plitler to and fro. Jietime wp saw the ripened grain Jloll heavy home in creaking- wain, T'.j iK-ap thn thrifty- farmer's store '(J a jiim. 1 iine wh-n winter t ried hifl door. Tho footpnfh wid'TiM, fell nparf; .omn evil spirit chiller the heart, .St.m" evil shnde ohnumS the day; Our pa.th.s diverged, wo lost our way. |
