My hand I trail
Within the shadow of the sail;
A joy intense.
The cooling sense
Glides down my drowsy Indolence.
With dreamful eyes
My spirit flies
Where summer sings and never dies;
O'ervelled with vines,
She glows and shines
Among her future oil and wines.
Her children, hid
The cliffs amid
Are gamboling with the gambling kid;
Or down the walls,
With tipsy calls.
Laugh on the rocks line waterfalls.

respondent of the New York Tribune
writes that he doubts whether the inde

theatre in Chicago, who says : "I regard
the evd tendencies that have lowered the
standard of the drama of late years as
