Eeviews Of Hew Books.
" Hark I" she said ; "I hear a rushing ,. Hear a roaring and a rushing , Hear the Falls of Minnehaha Calling to me from a distance 1 " " No , my child ! " said old Nokomis , u Tis the night-wind in the pine-trees ! , ?
" look t" she said ; "I see my father Standing lonely at his doorway , Beckoning to me from his wigwam In the land of the Dacotahs 1 " * ' No , my child ! " said old Nokomis , * 'Tis the smoke , that waves and beckons ! , ?
"Ah ! " she said , " the eyes of Pauguk Glare upon me in the darkness , I can feel his icy fingers Olasping mine amid the darkness ! Hiawatha ! Hiawatha I "
And the desolate Hiawatha , Far away amid the forest , Miles away among the mountains , Heard that sudden cry of anguish , Heard the voice of Minnehaha Calling to him , in the darkness , " Hiawatha ! Hiawatha !"
< e « oo « oo-o Then he sat down still and speechless ^ On the hed of Minnehaha , At the feet of Laughing Water ., At those willing feet that never More would lightly run to meet him , Never more would lightly follow .
With both hands his face he covered , Seven long days and nights he sat there ,. As if in a swoon he sat there , Speechless , motionless , unconscious Of the daylight or the darkness .
Then they buried Minnehaha ; In the snow a grave they made her , In the forest deep and darksome , Underneath the moaning hemlocks ; Clothed in her richest garments , Wrapped in her robes of ermine , Covered her with snow , like ermine ; Thus they buried Minnehaha .
And at night a fire was lighted , On her grave four times was kindled , For her soul upon its journey To the Islands of the Blessed . From his doorway Hiawatha Saw it burning in the forest , Lighting up the gloomy hemlocks ; From Iris sleepleBs bed uprising , From the hed of Minnehaha , Stood and watched it at the doorway , That it might not be extinguished , Might not leave her in the darkness .
