Felicia Hemans was one of the sweetest of our women poets. She will always be read and loved because she sang the sweet songs of the hoina- land in tended tones. The stately homes of England! How beautiful they stand! Amidst their tall ancestral trees, O'er all the pleasant land. The deer across their greensward bound Through shade and sunny gleam; And the swan glides past them with the sound Of some rejoicing stream. The merry Homes of England ! Around their hearths by night. What gladsome looks of household love Meet in the ruddy light! There woman's voice flows forth in song. Or lips move tunefully along Some glorious page of old. The cottage Homes ot England ! By thousands on her plains. They are smiling o'er the silvery brooks. And round the hamlet-fanes. Through glowing orchards forth they peep. Each from its nook of leaves. And fearless there the lowly sleep, As the birds beneath the eaves. The free, fair Homes of England! Long, long. In hut and hall. May hearts of native proof be rear's, To guard each hallowed wall! .\ud green for ever be the groves. And bright the flowery sod. Where first the child's glad spirit loves' Its country and its God!

The westbound train goes roaring through the night; Unrestful forms sprawl in the day- coach chairs, The Puiman curtains ripple In the light, The smoker rocks and reeks with hazy airs ; The brakeman lurches through the swaylns gloum, The postal clerks work swiftly at the mails. The porter dozes in the dressing room, The engineer peers sharply down the rails. The whirling wheels repeat a rhythmic beat. Culvert and cut and bridge go cry- ing past; Streams, towns, trees, farms and fields on flying feet Glide by like ghosts, astounded and aghast; And from the sky the silent stars look down The Last-Bom.
