BEHEATH THE PINES.
BY HAMLIN GARLAND.
O sunless deeps cf northern pines!
0 broad, juow-ladcn arms of fir!
Dioi aisles where wolves slip to and fro,
- And noiseiess wild deer swiftlykirr!
O home of wind songs wild and grand,
. As suits thy mighty strains! O harp
On which the north wind lays his hand!
1 walk thy pungent glooms once more
-And shout amid thy stormful roar.
As in deep seas a haven is found.
No wintrtempest stirs, though high
As hilts the marching wares upbound
And break; In hissing foam, stf I

The storm king with his train of snows
Sweeps downward from the bitter north,
And shouts hoare fury as he goes. '
I laugh in tones of chiming glee
To sec the shaking of his hair,
An.l hear f rom out his cloud of beard
His yoi;e imperial sweeps fie air.'
The dark pines lower their lofly crests.
As ivarriors bow whei chieftain grim
Rides by and shouts his stern behests,
And with switt answers echo him.
