TRICKY
I
The villagers, listening to a show
band, understood everything except
the trombone, so they asked the
opinion of the oldest settler. He
watched the player a while and ex-
claimed: on't notice him, there's
a tiiek in it; Tit aint really swaller-
ing it.'
Yc say that they have passed away.
That noble ract and brave;
That their light canoe8 have vatushe i
From off the crested wave;
That, 'mid the fiiients where they
roamed,
Thtie rings no hunter's shout;
Hut th-ii name is on your waters,
\e may not wash it out.
'Tis where Ontario's billow
Like ocean surge is curled;
Whert strung Niagara's thunder.,
wake
The echo of the world;
Where red Missouri bringeth
Rich tribute from the west,
An.l Rappahannock sweetly sleeps,
On green Virginia's breast.
Y«* say there con-like cabine,
That clustered o'er the vale,
Have fled away like withered leaves
Before the Autumn gale;
But their memory liveth on your hills
Tin ir baptism on your shore,
Your everlasting rivers speak
Their dialect of yore.
Old Mississippi wears it
Within her lordly crown,
And broad Ohio bears it
Amid his young renown;
Connecticut has w reatheU it
Where hiT quite foliape waves,
And bold Kentucky breathes
'hoarse
Through aft tur ancient caves.
W'achuset h'des its lingering voice
Within its rocky heart,
And Alleghi ny graves its tone
Throughout his lofty chart;
Monadnock, on his forehead hoar.
Doth seal th* sacred trust;
Your mountains 1/uild their monu-
ment
Though ye destroy their dust.
