THE BIRTHDAY OF THE YEAR. This, a New Year? Sad is the sky and grey; The trees writhe still beneath the ruthless blast; No freeb hope dawns, nor is the old grief past: All seems the same as it seemed yesterday. Here is no Babe of Time, as poets say,

Brought in to us from out the unknown vast: 'Ti-, like the Child the giant served aghast,* Older than eld, wielder of world-wide sway; And though as Stranger hailed, this wintry morn By men and bell, yet mark, the wise Earth gets No greeting ready, and uo glad bird trills— Surely if ever a New Year is born,

'Tis when the Spring charms forth the violets, And March beams on us with brave daffodils. ST. SWITHIN.
