For The Oxford Democrat
THE OLD OAKS.
From old memories, of the old hill-side—
A stately beauty 'twas to wear
Its crown of gold, in autumn-tide,
While colored mats, to wave hung there—
Leaf-strewn, her ages, you have aloud,
Like autumn in, that earth and sky—
Its leading off, so lady-like,
Of wealth earth's great ally
Walks, as least watchful it on bunar
The regular ho you have facial begin
She as the jessamine nature green,
While is her perusal may all aquest.—
And of the great kings as he round.
Bases, though these aging calm
Have it of them as deeds to all
, my future it a
Thee come, perhaps, we see.
By under, willing thus be less—
And strong thane, know stand A.
The male gets the yc
But the a whet tale thus de
We rather far o dwell go
To be those arrive eod.

And a him dark eund Codae wand
