VICTORY.
Tire jov that quivers in the pliant 'shaft.
And gives the radiant steel its pol- ] ished sheen; i That quickens into life the uncannv craft Which lays one dead upon the smil- ■ ing green ; The joy that, shining through the j morning's prime. i Sweeps o'er the links and makes one ; feel 'tis good , To be alive—especially at a time When you are playing as you really should ! >Such joys ], hymn. And hymn one joy besides, The very summit and the crown of bliss, O'ertopping all. No longer will 1 hide The secret of my ecstasy, "'tis this: That in my game against the boastful Brown I had him, oh, ye gods, some seven | down ! j --John 11. Wilson. j
