A SONG OF THE WOODS BY MARY CARVER WILLIAMS (AGE 14) {Honor Member)Come, Mab, of woodland fairies queen,And sit thee down on mosses greenNeath shading oak, in cove silver brooklet now is singing,The birds their morning calls are ringing,And we our tales of joy are bringing. We sing of our immortal race, Of bold Diana in the chase, And Orpheus lyre of charming grace ; Aurora, robed in purest white, Throws wide the curtains of dull night, And ushers in the morning light. We think not of Eurydice,We sing of bird and bumblebee,And all that possess liberty ;Phoebus, what boots it to our eyesHow fast across the turquoise skiesThy gold-emblazoned chariot flies? We sing until the even shadesBegin to lengthen in the glades,And een nights beacon oer us delight the shadows longIn us imbue, and thousands strongWe waft above, for done our LEFT BEHIND. BY LEONORA BEMIS, AGE 17. (SILVER BADGE.) 1912.] ST. NICHOLAS LEAGUE 1049 A SONG OF THE WOODS BY MARGARET TILDSLEY (AGE II) (Silver Badge)The twilight deepens in the wood, The sun has set behind the hill;No stirring s heard, no beast or bird Has open mouth or chattering bill. The evening dark has passed away, And dawn comes with her golden hood ; Now stirring s heard, no beast or birdBut knows that morning s in the wood.
