FOR A GUEST ROOM
Pull the curtains, brinp; the light, Dusk is drawing into night. I'nend, the lamplit hours begin, Vv eleome to the house you're in. Lovers in the Lovers" Lane Watch our lighted window-pane; John and Mary picking posies In dim thickets of primroses See the glowing blinds and stare, .0 there's Blessing in the air. l'Yiend, the lamplit hours begin, Welcome to the house j-ou're in; Me the hours you spare us end For your coming thank you, friend. 'Scanty power to give has man, We shall give you as we can. You have brought us, never doubt, From the world o£ men without Something that we cannot spare Of the Blessmu in the air. "The Spectator." — Uodfrey Elton,
