Text Appearing Before Image:
pell. 350 BALLADS AXD LYRICS. Then an old man in a tower,Kinging loud the noontide hour, While the rope coils round and roundLike a serpent at his feet,And again, in swift retreat, Nearly lifts him from the ground. Then within a prison-yard,Faces fixed, and stern, and hard. Laughter and indecent mirth;Ah! it is the (rallows-tree !Breath of Christian charity. Blow, and sweep it from the earth I Then a school-boy, with his kiteGleaminor in a skv of licrht, And an eager, upward look;Steeds pursued through lane and field;Fowlers with their snares concealed; And an anoler bv a brook. Ships rejoicing in the breeze.Wrecks that float oer unknown seas, Anchors dragrored througrh faithless sand;Sea-fog drifting overhead.And, with lesseninor line and lead, Sailors feehng for the land. All these scenes do I behold,These and many left untold, In that buildinop Ions: and low ;While the wheel goes round and round,With a drowsy, dreamy sound. And the spinners backward go. Henry AVadsworth Longfellow.
Text Appearing After Image:
Ships rejoicing in the breeze. See p. 350. T THE FORCED RECRUIT. 351 THE FORCED RECRUIT. SOLFERINO, 1859. In the ranks of the Austrian you found him, He died with his face to you all;Yet bury him here where around him You honor your bravest that fall. Venetian, fair-featured and slender, f He lies shot to death in his youth,With a smile on his lips over-tender For any mere soldiers dead mouth. No stranger, and yet not a traitor, Though alien the cloth on his breast, \ Underneath it how seldom a greater Youno; heart has a shot sent to rest! By your enemy tortured and goaded To march with them, stand in their file,His musket (see) never was loaded. He facing your guns with that smile I As orphans yearn on to their mothers,He yearned to your patriot bands:* Let me die for our Italy, brothers, If not in your ranks, by your hands! * Aim straightly, fire steadily! spare meA ball in the body which mayDeliver my heart here, and tear meThis badge of the Austrian away! 352 BALLADS AXD LYRICS.
