hunt! we cried, and lightly ran to see what might befall. When a brown streak came quick-flashing down along the highroad there. Blindly to my arms upleaping—t was a little hunted hare. Sore amazed, it nestled closely and there lay, afraid to stir.Rest you safely, little soft one ! and we gently stroked its fur, Till we heard the dogs deep baying. Quick, we 11 throw them off the scent! Griflet took us both upon his back and through the stream we went. In a leafy covert hidden close, we watched the hunt sweep past.Weary from the days hard riding, with the quarry lost at last.Up and down they looked, and forward, but they never looked behind,Where at last the little rabbit scurried homeward like the wind. At the gates we met the huntsmen: Sooth, it was a sorry day!By some curious mischance we let the quarry get away.But they laughed loud as they listened—heard the whole adventure through:Certes, you are better hunters ! After this, we 11 hunt with you ! Clara Piatt Mcadowcrojt. 254
