The daisies nodded in the grass, th butter- curs were sieepinit, And Just across the river sang the farmers at their rennins: : L'ron the hills, so Hue and fair, the maple leaves were snowing Their soft whito beauties in the breeze that from the sea was hlowintf. A llttie maid came tbronah the land with souz and rioplina lauchter : The buttercups made way for her, the dai- . si;s nxldeu after. A strong young farmer saw her pause beside the partinif river : She drew a lilly from its depth with golden nearc a-quiver. "Thou art more fair than lilies are," said he, with head uplifted. And threw a poppy as the stream toward the maiden drifted. , She set the, llowers in lier hair the red and white together ; A cloud erew black before the Pun, and rainy was the weather. lie came across the river then, this farmer from his mowing ; n minded not the water's depth, he cared not tor its flowing. "O love 1" said he, "it gleaming sun and cloudless skies o'er lean us. The river's barring width may roll unpassed, untried between us ; But when loud thunder fills the air, and clouds and rain come over, I'd cross the ocean to your side I am no fair-day lover !" And so one noon the village bells rang out across the river. Their music set the buttercups and daisies all a-quiver. While some one drew a lily from the stream so blithely flowing, And plucked it blood-red poppy that amid the wheat was growing ; The maiden set them in her hair the red and white together With many a smile, a tear or two, and glanees at the weather. They passed beneath the chapel's shade the farmer and the maiden Where arches crossed atwve their heads, with snowy blossoms laden, And in that place of holy calm the binding words were spoken ; He in his heart bore out the truth, she on her hand the token. The years went by, and some were bright and some were clouded over, But ever stood he at her side lie was no fair-day lover. the captain and wife found themselves lKn one of the higher ledges, hardly knowing how they had reached it, w hi!e the crew, with Weeding hands and sore ly bruised limls, dragged themselves painfully np after them. They were not a moment too soon. Scarcely had the last man gained the ledge when the mountain wave took the vessel aback. She slid off the rocks which had held her up, and went down so quickly that tho captain, turning at the shouts of his men, just caught a glimpse of her topmast vanishing under water. The situation of the shipwrecked rrew was now dreary errrigh. Alone upon a bare rock in the midst of a stormy sea with no means of escape, and no food but the few brine-soaked biscuits in their pockets, there seemed to be noth ing left for them but to give themselves u I and die. lint, of all men living, a sailor is the least apt 1o think his case hoiK-less, however hard it may appear.
