Even when February beak. ■Suites with his frost the traveller's clieek, While the :iir has no touch of Spring, Bird of promise, we hear thee sing. Long ere the first rathe blossom wakes, Long ere the earliest leaf-bud breaks. April passes and May steals by; June leads in the sultry July: Sweet are the wood notes, loud and sweet, Heard from rabbin's and hang-bird's seat. Thou, as the irreen months glide away, Singest with them as gayly as they. August comes, and the melon and maize Bask and swell in his flrey blaze; •UvallGWb gither, and southward bound Wheel like a whirl-blast round and round Thrush and robin th- ir songi forget, Thou art chee-fully warbiiag vet.

Each brown leaf that Is clinging there; Still art then -iiiging amid the blast, "Soon is the dreariest 6eason past." Only wlien Christinas snow-storms make Smooth wb'te levels of .iver and luke, Sifting the light snows all dav long, nly then do we miss thy song, ?iire to bear It again, when eoou Climbs the sun to a higher uoon. Late when the sorrr wing south wiud brought Tidings of battles fiercely fought, Tidings of hosts in war array. Marking with graves their bloody way, till wert thou singing near mv door, "Soon is the Mtormiest season o'er.' Ever thus sin? cheerfully on, Bird of hope! as in ages gone, Sing of Spriug-tlmo and Summer shadcn, Autumn's pomp when ttie Pinnuier fadeS, Storms that flee fr m the conquering sun, Feace by enduring YaZor won.
