THE BROWNIES IN RUSSIA. And mark the many- towered pile That glowed in Oriental style. Once while they crossed a lonely waste A pack of wolves the Brownies chased, For miles and miles, well was their need, They scampered at their highest speed Through broken ground of every kind And still could hear the howls behind, Now sinking to a muffled wail, Now rising louder on the gale, Until the frosty hills around Gave answer to the awful sound. 123
