My head Dropped low on your breast With a leeling of shelter And infinite rest. While the holy emotions My tongue' dared not speak Flashed up in a flame From heart to my cheek. Your arms held me fast; Oh! your arms were so bold ; Heart beat against heart * In their passionate fold. Your glances seemed drawing My soul through my eyes As the sun dtaws the mist From the sea to the skies. Your lips clung to mine Till I prajed in my bliss They might never unclasp From the raptuous kiss. You kissed me! My heart, And my breath, and my will In delirious joy For a moment stood still. Life had for me then No temptations, no charm, No vision of happiness Outside of your arms. And were I this instant An ange! possessed Of the peaci and the joy That are given the blest, I would throw my white robes Unrepintngly down, I would tear from my forehead Its beautiful crown, To nestle once more In that haven of lest— Your lips upon mine, My head on your breast. You kissed me! My soul In a bliss so divine Reeled like a drunken man Foolish with wine, And I thought ’were delicious To die there, if death Would come while my lips Were yet moist with your beath; If I might grow cold While your arms clasp me round In their passionate fold. And these are the questions I ask day and night: Must lips taste no more Such exquisite delight ? Would you care if your breast Were my shelter as then, And if you were here Would you kiss me again 1 The above was written in 1867 by a lady under 20 years of age. James Redpath the historian thought so much of the poem thst he had an ed¬ ition of it printed on white satin. J. G. Whitier wrote of dt and its young author that she had truly mastered the secret ot English verse. W. J. Houston gives the sequel to the above descriptive of whtn the old man c >mes in and protests against such softy-ofty'blissful-blistering bliss. “ YOU KICLED ME. ” You kicked me ! Your foot Raised me high from th ground And I felt like a cyclone Had waltzed me around. My tongue tightly clove To the roof of my jaw And the leaves were outnumbered By the stars that I saw. Your toe struck me strong! Oh ! your toe was so hard ! I was raided from the steps And dropped in the front yard; I was raised from the steps Iu a style quite immense, My nose ploughed lhe yard up, My head struck the fence, You slipped up behind me— Your movements were quick, And my love was knocked cold kick. You kicked me! My hair For a time stood on end And I knew that the blow Did not come from a friend; And my only desire As I rose to my feet Was to bit the grit lively And pull for the streot. And were I this instant An inmate below Where the water don’t freeze And they never have snow, I would live there contented And eat red hot bricks Before I would take Just one more such dicks. Yes, I would drink red hot lead If by that I would know I’d had my last kick From your murderous toe. You kicked me! I felt Like a silly galoot As I sailed through the air From the toe of your boot. I lit on the ground With a solemn, dull thud, And I rose with my broadcloth All eoverad with mud. I cursed myself then For a venturesome fool And hoped the next kick Might come from a mule. And these are the questions I ask night and day: Am I free from your toe ? Will I bo free alway 1 Will I have sense in future To steer clear of snch knocks ? And I say to myself : ‘ £ You bet your old socks. ” The Americus and Improvement Company open the Windsor hotel, Americus, on Thursday, 16, with a ball. Muscogee county has not a hanging since 1858.
