ANOTHER NEWTON'S APPLE
We tried to show with lamp and ball
How simply day and night were “made”;
How earth revolved, and how through all
One half was sunshine, one was shade.

One side, tho' turned and turned again,
Was always bright. She mused and frowned,
Then flashed—“It's just an apple, then,
'at's always rosy half way round!”

Oh, boundless tree of ranging blue,
Star-fruited through thy heavenly leaves,
Be, if thou canst be, good unto
This apple-loving babe of Eve's
