NATURE STUDY in the POETS 



A Choice Collection of Memory Verses Arranged for School Use by 

 MARY ROENAH THOMAS. Teacher in the Hancock School, Boston 



The author has drawn not only from the well known poets like Wordsworth, Long- 

 fellow, Bryant, but also from some original sources. A number of bird poems, for in- 

 stance, of unusual merit, and never before pubHshed, are contributed by a friend of the 

 author. ITie selections on the Seasons are arranged so as to portray the Season's ad- 

 vance; that is, the stanzas coming first under the head of Spring give the sights and 

 sounds of early spring, those which follow carrying the thought forward with the matur- 

 ing season. . . There are quotations suitable for special days such as Arbor Day, 

 Memorial Day. Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc.
