OCR DAO SMD FOR SEPTEMBER, 1908. PUBLISHED MONTHLY BY E. C. YEATS AT THE CUALA PRESS, CHURCHTOWN, DUNDRUM, COUNTY DUBLIN. SUBSCRIPTION TWELVE SHILLINGS A YEAR POST FREE. Bring wine, and oil, and barley cakes, So we will launch, and fade away And let us lade our birch canoe, Down the yellow echoing tide of his, The murmuring Mississipi breaks Past the worn bluffs of polished clay Beyond the dim bayou. Where keen mosquitoes whizz. Strong with the melted snows he comes, The Indian on the Rocky Alps Loudly he roars like muffled drums. Will bid us hail, and spare our scalps. For wise and old is yon Red Man So wise and old, so bronzed, so hale; With crimson and viridian He streaks his coat of mail. Reined in there, at the canyon’s brim, His pony seems a part of him. Wolfe T. MacGowan. 300 copies only.
