TUK 11IBEFOOT HOY. BY JOHN G. WUITTIEB. Blessings on the little man, Barefoot boy, with cheek of tau ! With thy upturned pantaloons, And the uierry whistled tunes— With thy red lip, redder still Kissed by strawberries on the hill — With the sunshine on thy face, Through thy torn brim's jaunty grace ; From my heart I give the joy, I was occe a barefoot boy. Oh ! for boyhood's painless play, Sleep that wakes in laughing day, Health that mocks the doctor's rules, Knowledge never learned at schools, Of the wild boe's morning chase, Of the wild flower's time and place, Flight of fowls and habitude Of the tenants of the wood. How the tortoise bears his shell, How the woodchuck digs his tell, And the ground mole sinks well. How the robiu feeds her young, How the oriole's nest is hung, Where the whitest lilies blow, Where the freshest berries grow. Where wooduut trails its vine, Where the wood-grape clusters shine ; Of the black wasps cunning way, Mason on his walls of clay And tho architectural plans Of gray-hornet artisans I For eschewing books and tasks, Nature answers all he asks: Hand in hand with her he walks, Face to face with her he talks, Part and parcel of joy— Blessing on tho barefoot boy .' Choerily, then, my little inau. Live and laugh as boyhood can, Though the ilinty slopes be hard. Stubble —spread the new-mown sward, Every morn shall lead thee through, Fresh baptism of the dew ; Every evening from thy feet Shall the cool wind kiss the heat; And too soon these feet shall hide In the prison cells of pride, Loose the freedom of the sod Like a colt for work be shod ; Made to tread the mills of toil ; Up and down the ceaseless moil — Happy if thy track be found Never on forbidden ground— Happy if they sink not in Quick and treacherous sands of sin. Ah ! that thee but knew thy joy Ere it passes, barefoot boy! TIIE PERFECT Mil END. I heard one say. the other day. When speaking of a friend he knew And loved, though he was far away, "Gcd bless him, for his heart is true!" And musing to myself, I thought. How many blessings come and go, llow many words of love unsought That he they speak of cannot know ! And now, perhaps, one far away, A friend whom long age I knew, May think and speak of me. and say, '"God Bless hira, for his heart is true !" Strange mystery of joy and pain. That keeps with us where'er we go ! The sweetest praise that we can gain, Is that which we can never know. But marking whence the yearnings start, And what it is to which they tend, I scorn to touch I'ne living heart Of one all-knowing, perfect Friend. Q UMIKAL EI.ECTIOX t^oaxu-A-^TA-Tioisr.
