UNDER THE LONG LEAVED PINE.
BY B. B. V,
I heard the sweep of the restless breeze;
Like the ceaseless rush of the troubled
seas,
Whose wave on wave beats up on shore
As millions have done in days of yore;
And there seemed to come from the
" leafy crest
A sigh like the sigh of a soul distressed
And I thought, of the days the land had
seen
When over its fields the South was queen.
And I breathed a prayer that it once
again
Might come 'neath the rule of the old
time men,
And after its days of penitent shrift
Enjoy as of old its prosperous thrift.
And win from the world its meed of praise
As it used to get in its halcyon days.
