THE RIVER IN THE SPRING O sweet for sound the tinkling tones OR rippling brook and rill, As running shallow on the stones, Their speeding waste they spill! 'Neath •summer suns in splintered light, Unnumbered tints they flash, While here and there, ai though by fright, Their tiny wavelets splash. Yet rills their way to rivers run, As iaivers run to sea— That largest ends in least begun, Be served in unity. My tribute, then, I pay the small, The brooks and rills and, such, Whose courses to the river fall-- The all-The many making much. But 'tis the river I would sing, In notes of golden sound, Her broader waters deepening, Chaste music's lovely round: O could I End a melody, To air my river's praise! Or write an anthem's harmony To match her many ways! She changes as the seasons move, Yet ever glads my sight; Her constant beauty holds my love Each morning, noon and night: The times I snatch from work and play To watch her vagrant moods, For me are, whether grave or gay, Most happy interludes. She little seeks in wintertime To stay my hurried stride; Yet even here the frosty rime Her glampr cannot hide: For here, beneath an ermine spread, My searching eye descries Her slumbrous graces put to 'bed— Till Spring shall bid her rise! And then, when sunny days are by, Her summer tide she lifts, Full -bosomed to the glowing sky, As deep and slow she drifts; And though some life from her de- parts— Drawn upward by the sun— Yet even langour charm imparts, To add to beauties won. And later still, the falling leaves, Their Autumn summons make, And though my river deeply grieves, Her farewell she must take; A sombre guise she loathly °dons— Her pledge with rest to keep—. Then feebly as her current runs, She slowly sinks to sleep. But while I mourn, I watch and wait Till ends her slumbering: For she shall wake with mighty spate, When year is at the Spring. And when it comes, with eyes alight, I see her scatter sleep, As off she flings her blankets white, Up from her beds to leap! A thousand veins now pour their blood, That she should pulse with life: They come from hill and field and wood, To make her powers rife. And now, with vast titanic force— Which gathers energy— Her cataracts all rive the course Through which she sweeps to sea. Now whirling waves and boili floods In wild abandon spring: Like water giants ,fightinfeuds, To see who should be king!

And now, as calm comes on amain, Spring's parable I see: My river, sprung to health again, Is cleansing death's debris! The former things are passed away, Her life is made anew. And seeing thus, I hear her say: "0 give the Spring its due!" Though every season, in its time, is greatly meaningful, Yet Spring's to me an all sublime, Eternal miracle! Each Spring I feel the force of things, and sense the Grand Design: That Life is fed from heavenly springs, Majestic; deep; Divine! REV. ALBERT HINTON, Kippen.
