When round in throngs the list'ning people come, T'admire what sprung in Greece so slow at home Rais'd to this height, your leisure hours engage In something just and worthy of the stage; Your choice of words from Cicero derive, And in your poems you design shou'd live, The joys of feasts, and terrors of a war, More pleasing those, and these more frightful are, When told by you, than in their acting were: And thus, enrich'd with such a golden store, You're truly fit to be an orator."
One stands with low-bowed head While list'ning to their silver tongues recite The sweet tale of the Angelus there slips A white dove low across the tiling red And as we breathe a whispered, fond "Good night," A "Pax vobiscum" parts the Padre's lips. * XXIII No. 5 NOVEMBER, 1910 By GUY H.

One of the favourite songs which they delighted to sing on such auspicious occasions was rendered with touching pathos "Sing good-bye to Sal, and good-bye to Sue; Away Rio! And you that are list'ning, good-bye to you; For we're bound to Rio Grande! And away Rio, aye Rio! Sing fare ye well, my bonny young girl, We're bound to Rio Grande."
Sir, I am plagued every Moment in the Day one way or other in my own Chambers; and the Jezebel has the Satisfaction to know, that, tho' I am not looking at her, I am list'ning to her impertinent Dialogues that pass over my Head.
