Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 62, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 April 1909 — An Organ Grinder. [ARTICLE]

An Organ Grinder.

I looked upon his face the while ho played— The sordid lines were softened, and his eyes Saw not our friendless wails, our alien skies. Our roaring streets where strides the tyrant Trade. Again he roamed beneath the chest, nut shade Again he roamed Where, grim and grand, Campanian mountains rise, Or marked the olives glisten, silvery wise, In the warm light of some SlUcian glade. I Bo may we each weigh sail and voyage far . On immaterial Journeys; ho puts out Throught the rough magic of his organ strain; A finer music guides us to our star; But all have goals beyond the seas of Donbt, Havens of heart we tain would find again. Remember The Republican when In need of Job printing. ,
