Shining paths for truant feet;
From that golden blossoming
Wilted sprays are all I bring.
You who know their fault the best,
To their fault be tenderest,
For a breath of fragrant days
Whispers you from wilted sprays.
"Some Shires, Joseph-like, have a better colouredcoat than others; and some, with Benjamin, havea more bountiful mess of meat belonging to them.Yet every County hath a child's proportion."
Thomas Fuller.
These summer wanderings through thewest of England were undertaken at therequest of The Chautauquan, from whose pagesthe bulk of this material is reprinted. Butthe chronicle of this recent journey has beensupplemented, as the text indicates, by earliermemories.
