SON G.
By H. W. Longfellow.
•Stay, stay at home, my heart, and rest; « Home-keeping hearts are happiest, I?e fnn S nft at Z? nd *l, they know not where ;. . Are full of trouble and full of care • lo stay at home is best. Weary and homesick and distressed [hey wander East, they wander West, And are baffled and beaten and blown about # ■ By the winds of the wilderness of doubt: < To stay at home is best. Then stay at home, my heart, and rest; The bird is safest in its nest; If r al* *** flutte * their wings and fly A Juiwk is hovering in the sky ; To stay at home is best. _ —AUntxc Monthly.
