EGGS AND OLIVES.
Need am omnis abacta Pauperies epnlis regum ; nam vilibus ovis Nigrisque est oleis hodie loons. Hor. Sat. 11, g, 44-6. TO ANJNIE WILSON, Of Lethenty, Rangitikei, author of "Themes and Variations." Sweet Singer, born Thy native land to bless, God grant Thee clearer 7ision year by year And more melodious utterance, that the ear Of such as apend their life in bitterness, And curse, and fain would dia in their distress, May drink the inspiring tone and find Heav'n near— A glorious Fact of fact 3, and not the "mere Cloud-kingdom of a. wild fanatic's guess. Sing oil, sing on — the beauties of our Land, Bxhausfcless as enchanting, still Thy theme ; Bab yet to nobler issues let Thine hand Carers the itringg : these beauties only aesm—^ Biug so that men's dark Sauls may understand The hidden Real that lies behind the dream !
