GAY GARDENS.
A SUMMER SAUNTER. Let us wander, glad and slow. Where the hedge-side roses blow, Where the little daisies grow. Where the winds a-maylng go. Where the breeze-bow'd poplars nod. Where the old woods worship God, Where His pencil paints the sod, Where the simple rustics plod. Where the wedded throstle sings. Where the young bird tries its wings. Where the walling plover swings. Where the sparkling runlet springs. There beneath the breezy crest, Tir’d and thankful, let us rest. Like a child that sleepeth best On Its gentle mother's breast. George Eliot.
