MOI11i118 The blushing dawn peeps slyly through the trees, And husy day sweeps from the uiurky sky The eohwehs of the night. A fl'ilf.Il'll1lJf hi-eeze Makes inusie in the leaves, while up on high The tower is touched with gold. The big ehni-eh 4-lo Stal-ts up his weary lagging round. fThen stops anon as solid as a rock To ponder on the flight of tillltli A sound Breaks, echoing forth a footstep. Then the door Ts opened. Soon with wandering steps, or fast Fonie students, seekers of the ti-easnred lore I Of days gone byg and of these not the last A iigm-e, old slouch hat atop-goes in With steps assured. The swarming CfIl'l'illHl' Grows orderly. The daily tasks begin. Ah ! happy days that come for ns no more.
