Save woman’s quietness of thought;

And yet around her is a light

Of inward majesty and might.” M. J. J.

“Wer solch ein herz an sienen Busen druckt

Der kann fur herd und hof mit freuden fechten.”

WILLHELM TELL.

It was the time when children bound to meet

Their father’s homeward step from field or hill,

And when the herd’s returning bells are sweet

In the Swiss valleys, and the lakes grow still,
