The Rook and Lark.

fp OOD-NIGHT, Sir Rook," said a little Lark. "The daylight fades, it will soon be dark ; I've bathed my wings in the sun's hot ray, I've sung my hymn to the dying day; So now I haste to my quiet nook In yon dewy meadow. Good-night, Sir Rook."

" Good-night, poor- Lark," said his titled friend, With a haughty toss and a distant bend. " I also go to my rest profound, But not to sleep on the cold damp ground; The fittest place for a bird like me Is the topmost bough of yon pine tree."

" I opened my eyes at peep of day And saw you taking your up-ward way, Dreaming your fond, romantic dreams, An ugly speek in the sun's bright beams, Soaring too high to be seen and heard, And said to myself, 'What a foolish bird!'" —Selected merican House
