THE SECRET OF THE ROAD.

Which way does the road go? Up and down ' From the valley to the hill's

crown, Athwart the .woods that Ha behind hike a silver ribbon blown by the wind! And through the green Where geese are seen, _ And past the grey mill with its peeping panes, '■'.(. And the: long lloneysuckled lanes; And"down, and on, and up the spinney's "rise Till it creeps into the skies. If I should start, and walk the lirelong day, . Watching wonderihgly all the way. Till all familiar things had travelled by— And the star* had fall'n into the sky— I should not find that which the wind finds at his will: fflie secret 6f the road—it stretches farther, farther still. ,
