Sappho.
Sappho's fragments are redolent of
flowers; her woven verse, a “rich-red
chlamys” in the sunshine, has a silver
sheen in the moonlight, We hear the
full-throated song of the “herald of
the spring, the nightingale ;” the breeze
moves the apple boughs, the wind
shakes the oak trees, Her allusions to
the “hyacinths, darkening the ground
when trampled under foot of shep-
herds” the “fine, soft bloom of grass,
trodden by the tender feet of Cretan
women as they dance;” or the “golden
pulse growing on the shore"-—all these
seem inevitable to one who has scen
the acres of bright flowers that carpet
the Islands of the nearby littoral of the
Asian coast. . , . In her Lesbian
orchards the sweet quince-apple is still
left hanging “solitary on the topmost
bough upon its very end;"” and there
is heard “cool murmuring through ap-
ple boughs while slumber floateth
down from quivering leaves "Francis
G. Allinson and Amma C. E. Allinson.

“Oh, no, ma," came the reply. “We're
