PAST AND PRESENT TIME.
These pleasant fields where now wo play,
Without a dread of fear,
Wero once the Indian's wild abode,
And war-songs echoed here.
These streets were one? a forest dark,
Ur but a tangled way,
Trod by the foot of savage men,
Or prowling beasts of prey. .
But light and knowledge from tho East,
Dispel the forest's gloom,
And rcar'd a house of learning here,
To occupy its room.
New songs of praise, and notes of joy,'
From children's lin's arise.
Whore late tho savage yell was heard,
Or helpless victims' cries.
Warm houses now, and fields of corn,
With farms and seats of case,
Have mark'd the path of civil men',
,Aud taught e'en toil to please.
Canals and bridges, level ways,
Smooth roads, and neat hotels,
Now occupy the forest ground,
And mark where white man dwells'.
If art and science wrought a change,.
So mighty and so fair,
Then should improvement be our aim,
Our early, constant care. ,
