"Who'll keep for me my indye dear ?" The bold Crusader cries; "Intrast thy ladye dear to me," His brother false replies. ''Tract her to me; in secret bower Sho'll,with my damsels stay, Or sit in hall with lordly dames, -And fare as well as they." Few days had puled, and gay to view Was Faonte's oourt-yard fair, All fill'd with mounted Red-Cross Knights, Whose banners stream'd in air. Ere far had rode that eastle's lord, His spouse had learn'd to weep ! "Doff those proud robes for hodden gray; Go forth ! and tend my sheep !" "Oh ! brother dear, the sheep to tend, Alas ! I know not how." "If to tend sheep thou'st never learn'd, My lance shalt teach thee now !" Seven live-long years beside her sheep, The sad one wept in vain ; At seven years' end, forgot to weep, And sweetly sung agaitt As with her songs the mountains rung, A knight came riding near, And to his page the reins he flung, Cries, "Whose that voice I hear f "That silver voice ! seven years have past, (Seven weary years, trove,) Since in mine ears it sounded last, Even as 1 hear it now! "Good-morrow to thee, mountain maid! Thy carol sounds so gay, Methinks thou Mist, to sing so olear, Breakfasted well to-day!" "Fared well I hive—to God be thanks For what he gave and took— Though on a cruet I broke my fast, And dipped it in the brook." "Tell me, fair damsel ! oan I lodge At yonder lordly hall'!" "Oh, yes! you'll tind fair lodging there, Your steed a knightly stall "A couch of down will wait your rest, such us I once could share, Ere, barash'd with the flocks to dwell, I shared the watch-dog's lair?" " , And where, my child, then, is your spouse? Your wedding•ring 1 see." "My spouse, my lord, is at the wars— lie'd fair long locks like thee!" '•lf long and fair his locks like mine, Might we not be the same?" . "Oh, yes! you are my love, my lord, And I Fauute's dame !" "Leave thou tho Rooks! my hand to reach With fiery baste I burn ! Brother! all hail ! my lady's weal From you I long to learn ?" "Still fair as bravo'—Rest, brother, rest Your lodge fair has gone Quimper, to a wedding feast; But she'll be here anon." "Thou Hest, wretch ! thy sheep to feed, On mountains lone and bare, Thou eent'st my dame, in servile weed ; Lo! she stands sobbing there! "Go! brother cursed, and hide thy shame Not one more lying word ! Wer't not our parents' hallow'd hearth, Thy blood had stain'd my sword!" GENERAL BANKING LAW.

Three ladies stopped at three wild paths On their way to the Throne of Bliss, And Wit mime by With a piercing eye, And told them to go by his : But Love and Pleasure followed soon, To relieve the maiden's cares, And each did say • The shortest way To the Throne of Bins was their's. The first went on the brighter path, And found it strewed with flowers, With verses writ On each by Wit, That kept her back for hours : The second followed Pleasure's track, And saw a thousand sweets, So thought it fair To linger there, And taste the fairy treats. But she who trod o'er Cupid's path, Among its honied store, Found every pace, O'er Love's sweet place, More blissful than before : For glad young voices called her on, Till lured by this On the Throne of Bliss She sat—mrr zroT ALONE CARDS.
