And I will kiss her in the waterfalls,
And at the rainbow's end, and in the incense
That curls about the feet of

And sing with her in canebrakes and in rice fields,
In Romany, eternal Romany.

THE PRIME OF LIFE
Jº
Ust as I thought I was growing old,
Ready to sit in my easy-chair,
To watch the world with a heart grown cold,
And smile at a folly I would not share,
Rose came by with a smile for me,-
And I am

Isn't the age that it seems to be,
When two pretty brown eyes are near.

But when the sun once more in saffron stept,
Rolling his
flagrant
wheel out of the deep,
We sang the loves and angers without sleep,
And all the exultant labours of the strong:
But now the lying clerics murder song
With barren words and flatteries of the weak.
