OV THE HILLS.
Am the broad, brown, peaceful hills,
With blossoms to our horses knees,
With Bin(fiiiK bird3 by broken rills,
We rode through seas of drowsy bees.
The ardor of my speech prew still
As we rode on that perfect day;
The brown birds piping from the hill;'
The crickets had it their own wey.
Then we fell weary with the day,
j God's bars of gold across the west i
Before us drew uiid made ns stay '
Beside a blossomed rill and rest.
The camp-fire blazed, the horses grazed.
And, belly-deep in bloom and grass,
Would blink as by the bright flame dazed,
Or sniff to smell the panther pass.
The massive stars of gold stood out.
Bright camp-hres of poor, weary souls,
Ponnd heavenward. W hiie all about
-""" ConoUd peace, witfi white patrols.
