[182] JUNEThirtieth Day AH ! happy day, refuse to go !Hang in the heavens forever so !Forever in mid-afternoon,Ah, happy day of happy out thy sunshine on the hill,The piney woods with perfume fill,And bring across the singing seaLand-scented breezes that shall be. Ah, happy day refuse to go !Hang in the heavens forever so !Forever let thy tender mistLie hke dissolving amethystDeep in the distant dales, and shedThy mellow glory overhead !

JULYFirst Day OH, sing a little song of trustWhose notes are clear and true,And tell to every listening soulThe Saviour died for you;A song is but a little thing, But on its wings of loveThe weary soul may rise from earthAnd find its rest above. Oh, do some little act of love To help a world in blossom as a fair, white flower Grows from a tiny seed;It may be but a little drop Drawn from a living blest are they whose willing hands Such heavenly comfort bring !
