"Zephyr with Aurora playing, As he met her once a-Maying." But before any one had kissed or even touched her, she had disappeared, leaving the children gazing into the air, and seeking their late companion with tearful eyes. Goldilocks had only gone back to Despard, who was still planting flower-seeds. "What a miserable game," said Goldilocks; "it is worse than playing funeral!

"And some one is bound to cross it, whether he will or no. 'Tis a sure sign!" "Sure!" they all agreed, in hushed voices as faint and far-off as the breaking of the tide against the rocks on the opposite coast. As they spoke, the fairy-like bridge in the sky parted asunder and vanished! The brilliant aurora borealis faded by swift degrees a few moments, and the land was again enveloped in gloom.

He dropped his hands, and walked to the door.
