And beg on this auspicious day To come and kiss your hand. Their syllables all counted right. Their rhymes each In Its place, Liko birthday children at the door, They wait to sfe your face. Rise, lady, rise and let them In. Fresh from the fairy shore, They bring you things you wish to have. Each in IU pinafore. For they have been In Wishing Land This morning !n the dew. And all your dearest wishes bring— All granted—home to you. What these may be they would not tell And could not If they would; They take the packets sealed to you As trusty servant* should. But thore Is one that looked like love, And one that smelt like health. And one that had a jingling sound— I fancy might be wealth. Ah! well, they are but wishes still, But, lady dear, for you, I know that all you wish Is kind— l pray It all comes true. —Robert L. Stevenson. BOLTON-M’DANIEL.
