Cross and loss,The bleak wind sighing on the barren wold. Deter him not. In tronblous things he singsOf pleasures vast, untold. In the worlds thought he toils in fears and tears,The restless breezes sob far over sea, But faith beams in his dewy eyes, nor diesThough times illusions flee. He loves and longs and feels lifes dart and smart,The airs but whisper woes to hill and dale, Yet all his heart endures to smile the whileHe soothes earths sorrows pale. A SUGAR SEASON AT THE FARM.
