THE TWISTER. A twister, in twisting, would twist him a twist, If one twist, in twisting, untwist from the twist, The twist, untwisting, untwists the twist." A RAVELLED rainbow overhead Lets down to life its varying thread: Love's blue,-Joy's gold,—and, fair be tween, Hope's shifting light of emerald green; With, either side, in deep relief, A crimson Pain, a violet Grief. Wouldst thou, amid their gleaming hues, And be thou sure, what tint soe'er FANTASY. "I have a little sister, They call her peep, peep; She wades through the water, Deep, deep, deep; She climbs up the mountains, High, high, high; My poor little sister, She has but one eye!” ROUGH Common Sense doth here confess Her kinship to Imagination; Betraying also, I should guess, Some little pride in the relation. |
