A change has come over nature Since you and June were here; The sun has turned to the southward Adown the steps of the year. The grass is ripe in the meadow, And the mowers swing in rhyme; The grain so green on the hillside Is in its golden prime. No more the breath of the clover Is borne on every breeze, No more the eye of the daisy Is bright on meadow leas.
An' dey wuz a-drillin' an' a-drillin' all 'bout for a while an' dey went 'long wid all de res' o' de army, an I went wid Marse Chan an' clean he boots, an' look arfter de tent, an' tek keer o' him an' de hosses. An' Marse Chan, he wan' a bit like he use' to be. He wuz so solum an' moanful all de time, at leas' 'cep' when dyah wuz gwine to be a fight.
THE LEAS. PARABOLA ROAD. CHELTENHAM, Sunday. DEAREST MUMMY: I'm awfully sorry you don't like my last term's school report. I know it wasn't what it ought to have been. I have to hold myself in so as to keep in the same class with Rosalind when we're moved up after Midsummer. But as she's promised me faithfully she'll let herself rip next term, you'll see it'll be all right at Xmas.
It is usually advisable for a good runner, who leas reached first with two men out, to attempt to steal second, because then one hit will likely bring him home; whereas if he stays on first it will require two hits, or two errors in succession, and these are not likely to come, with two men already out.
Because it never varies, all can bear The burden of the circumambient air; Because it never ceases, none can hear The music of the ever-rolling sphere None, save the poet, who, in moor and wood, Holds converse with the spirit of Solitude. And I remember how Antaeus heard, Deep in great oak-woods, the mysterious word Which said, "Go forth across the unshaven leas To meet unconquerable Hercules."
She put up a hand to her rolling breast, closed her eyes tightly, and gasped as though completely overcome by this trifling rencounter. "'Ow is it?" questioned the obsessed Stott. "Oh dear! Oh dear!" panted the stout woman, "the leas' thing upsets me this afternoon...." She wandered away into irrelevant fluency, but Stott was autocratic; his insistent questions overcame the inertia of even Mrs.
The Venus Annodomini who came out of the sea at Folkestone in the form of an authentic mermaid was something more than a mere critic of our civilised conventions. She was that, too; she asked why people walked on the Leas "with little to talk about and nothing to look at, and bound not to do all sorts of natural things, and bound to do all sorts of preposterous things."
Another as nearly like her in bodily condition and circumstances as he could find, took her place, with a like result; and before long the healing that hovered about Priory Leas began to be known and talked of amongst the professors of the college, and the medical men of the city.
The effect of the New Accelerator passed like the drawing of a curtain, vanished in the movement of a hand. I heard Gibberne's voice in infinite alarm. "Sit down," he said, and flop, down upon the turf at the edge of the Leas I sat scorching as I sat. There is a patch of burnt grass there still where I sat down.
Preaches like mad his ablishun doctrine, as he call it, an' down on rum, sure sartin. He works jes' all de time fur de leas' pay you never heard tell of. Is he comin' up yere?" "I hope so, some time; but he is Aunt Phebe's husband now, and we want to know something about him."
