Rhymed Reviews Maria Chapdelaine By Louis Hémon. Translated by W. H. Blake ‘The Macmillan Co. MAIDEN fair to look upon, Maria dwelt where settlers shiver In white Quebec, near Lake St. John. | Across the Peribonka River. Her father, Farmer Chapdelaine, Was much too fond of pioneering; He scorned the cultivated plain And loved the lonely forest clearing. | She loved young Francois Paradis; But Fate his life-thread rudely | ored: That rless woodsman frank and free Succumbed to fierce December's blizzard. Then suitors twain of good renown Besought the melancholy charmer: Lorenzo Suprenant from town, And plain Eutrope Gagnon, a farmer. ‘Be mine!” Lorenzo urged his plea, “And taste the joy of life in Lowell !" Eutrope implored, “with me; s best to stick to those you know vell.” But when Maria’s mother died, Her doubts were solved; her vow was spoken To be the humble farmer's bride; For hers were bonds not lightly broken; For these were hers and she was theirs ;— Her little church of heavenward steeple, Her homely duties, joys and cares, Her simple, hardy, pious people.
