THE LITTLE 1 ROUBLES.
The little, little troubles!
They thought awhile to stay,
But love was there beside me
And drove them all away;
Hhe routed tbern with laughter
W ith music of the May,
And when tbe walked beside
rne
Tbe troubles raD away.
The little, little trouble®!
Though always near they be,
I know that love forever
Can drive tbern far from me;
Hhe frightened them with song, „ " " y [\ IT ™

And so they fKJUght the shadows
Where troubles all belong!
The little, little troubles!
They crossed the meadows
sweet
And filled the rosy highways
With brambles for my feet!
But 'ovecame forth to mret me day.
ter,
Her heart with song is gay,
And when she walks beside rne
The troubles run away!

-upposing that something bad
had happened, called to him and
asked what was the matter, he
said, nothing is the matter now

asked me twice to take her home
