FROM "GANYMEDE."
Three miles from Trory town lies a secret meadow Girt with green recesses which the sun scarce cleaves; Cool-dewed at dawn, and at noon made , sweet with grasses. Dusky-petalled violets, and last year s leaves.
Dark-banded, girt with deep serene T*€'CGSSGS Where the noon .scarce wakens the night-drowsed bee; Dusk-bound, but, oh, the endless, sunny hollows, - , , , Clothed with waving shadows when the wind runs free.
Curled golden waters ripple in the sun 4- X\ ATA When the swallow skims through the sword-edged reeds, * White-bellied, bright-winged, full of summer's music, Shedding slurry spray through the grey marsh reeds. —John Peale Bishop..'
