-Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no one
-owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation (and
-you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without permission
-and without paying copyright royalties.  Special rules, set forth in the
-General Terms of Use part of this license, apply to copying and
-distributing Project Gutenberg™ electronic works to protect the Project
-Gutenberg™ concept and trademark. Project Gutenberg is a registered
-trademark, and may not be used if you charge for the eBooks, unless you
-receive specific permission. If you do not charge anything for copies of
-this eBook, complying with the rules is very easy. You may use this
-eBook for nearly any purpose such as creation of derivative works,
-reports, performances and research. They may be modified and printed and
-given away – you may do practically _anything_ with public domain
-eBooks.  Redistribution is subject to the trademark license, especially
-commercial redistribution.

-
-
-*1.A.* By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg™

-and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
-(trademark/copyright) agreement. If you do not agree to abide by all the
-terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy all

-agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or entity to whom you
-paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
-
-*1.B.* “Project Gutenberg” is a registered trademark. It may only be
-used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
-agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few things
-that you can do with most Project Gutenberg™ electronic works even
-without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See paragraph
-1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project Gutenberg™
-electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement and help
-preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg™ electronic works. See
-paragraph 1.E below.
-
-*1.C.* The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation (“the
-Foundation” or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of
-Project Gutenberg™ electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in
-the collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an
-individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
-located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you
-from copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating
-derivative works based on the work as long as all references to Project
-Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the
-Project Gutenberg™ mission of promoting free access to electronic works
-by freely sharing Project Gutenberg™ works in compliance with the terms
-of this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg™ name associated
-with the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
-keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
-Gutenberg™ License when you share it without charge with others.
-
-*1.D.* The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
-what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in
-a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check
-the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
-before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
-creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
-Gutenberg™ work.  The Foundation makes no representations concerning the
-copyright status of any work in any country outside the United States.
-
-*1.E.* Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
-
-*1.E.1.* The following sentence, with active links to, or other
-immediate access to, the full Project Gutenberg™ License must appear
-prominently whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg™ work (any work on
-which the phrase “Project Gutenberg” appears, or with which the phrase
-“Project Gutenberg” is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed,
-viewed, copied or distributed:
-
-    This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
-    almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away
-    or re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License
-    included with this eBook or online at http://www.gutenberg.org
-
-*1.E.2.* If an individual Project Gutenberg™ electronic work is derived
-from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
-posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
-and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
-or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work with
-the phrase “Project Gutenberg” associated with or appearing on the work,
-you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through
-1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the Project
-Gutenberg™ trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
-
-*1.E.3.* If an individual Project Gutenberg™ electronic work is posted
-with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
-must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
-terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will be linked
-to the Project Gutenberg™ License for all works posted with the
-permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
-
-*1.E.4.* Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg™
-License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
-work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg™.
-
-*1.E.5.* Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
-electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
-prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
-active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
-Gutenberg™ License.
-
-*1.E.6.* You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
-compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
-word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access to or
-distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg™ work in a format other than
-“Plain Vanilla ASCII” or other format used in the official version
-posted on the official Project Gutenberg™ web site
-(http://www.gutenberg.org), you must, at no additional cost, fee or
-expense to the user, provide a copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a
-means of obtaining a copy upon request, of the work in its original
-“Plain Vanilla ASCII” or other form. Any alternate format must include
-the full Project Gutenberg™ License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.

-    donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project Gutenberg
-    Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid within 60
-    days following each date on which you prepare (or are legally
-    required to prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty payments

-    Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in Section 4,
-    “Information about donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-    Archive Foundation.”
-
-  - You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
-    you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
-    does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg™ License.
-    You must require such a user to return or destroy all copies of the
-    works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue all use of and
-    all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg™ works.

-
-  - You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
-    distribution of Project Gutenberg™ works.

-in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from both the
-Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael Hart, the
-owner of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark. Contact the Foundation as set
-forth in Section 3. below.
-
-*1.F.*
-
-*1.F.1.* Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
-effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
-public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg™ collection.
-Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg™ electronic works, and the
-medium on which they may be stored, may contain “Defects,” such as, but
-not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription
-errors, a copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a
-defective or damaged disk or other medium, a computer virus, or computer
-codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment.
-
-*1.F.2.* LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES – Except for the “Right
-of Replacement or Refund” described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
-Gutenberg™ trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
-Gutenberg™ electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all liability
-to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal fees. YOU AGREE
-THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF
-WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3.

-
-*1.F.3.* LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND – If you discover a

-received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
-your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with
-the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
-refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
-providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
-receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy
-is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
-opportunities to fix the problem.
-
-*1.F.4.* Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth

-Project Gutenberg™ work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
-
-
-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™
-
-
-Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
-including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
-because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
-people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s goals
-and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely
-available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and
-permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn
-more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how
-your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the
-Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org .
-
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
-Foundation
-
-
-The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the state
-of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal Revenue
-Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification number is
-64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
-http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf . Contributions to the
-Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the
-full extent permitted by U.S.  federal laws and your state’s laws.
-
-The Foundation’s principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr.

-throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at 809
-North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
-business@pglaf.org. Email contact links and up to date contact
-information can be found at the Foundation’s web site and official page
-at http://www.pglaf.org
-
-For additional contact information:
-
-    Dr. Gregory B. Newby
-    Chief Executive and Director
-    gbnewby@pglaf.org
-
-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation
-
-
-Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without wide spread
-public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the
-number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely
-distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest array of
-equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to
-$5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with
-the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where
-we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
-visit http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any
-statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside
-the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways
-including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate,
-please visit: http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
-
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic
-works.
-
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg™
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
-Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. unless
-a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks
-in compliance with any particular paper edition.
-
-Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook’s eBook
-number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII,
-compressed (zipped), HTML and others.
-
-Corrected _editions_ of our eBooks replace the old file and take over
-the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed.
-_Versions_ based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving
-new filenames and etext numbers.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
-
-    http://www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including
-how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
-Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to
-our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

-                          MADELEINE VERCHERES.
-
-
-    I've told you many a tale, my child, of the
-      old heroic days,
-    Of Indian wars and massacre, of villages ablaze
-    With savage torch, from Ville Marie to the
-      Mission of Trois Rivieres;
-    But never have I told you yet of Madeleine Vercheres.
-
-    Summer had come with its blossoms, and gaily
-      the robin sang,
-    And deep in the forest arches, the axe of the
-      woodman rang;
-    Again in the waving meadows, the sun-browned
-      farmers met
-    And out on the green St. Lawrence, the fisherman
-      spread his net.
-
-    And so through the pleasant season, till the
-      days of October came
-    When children wrought with their parents, and
-      even the old and lame
-    With tottering frames and footsteps, their
-      feeble labors lent
-    At the gathering of the harvest le bon Dieu
-      himself had sent.
-
-    For news there was none of battle, from the
-      forts on the Richelieu
-    To the gates of the ancient city, where the flag
-      of King Louis flew;
-    All peaceful the skies hung over the seigneurie
-      of Vercheres,
-    Like the calm that so often cometh ere the
-      hurricane rends the air.
-
-    And never a thought of danger had the Seigneur,
-      sailing away
-    To join the soldiers of Carignan, where down
-      at Quebec they lay,
-    But smiled on his little daughter, the maiden
-      Madeleine,
-    And a necklet of jewels promised her, when
-      home he should come again.
-
-    And ever the days passed swiftly, and careless
-      the workmen grew,
-    For the months they seemed a hundred since
-      the last war-bugle blew.
-    Ah, little they dreamt on their pillows the
-      farmers of Vercheres,
-    That the wolves of the southern forest had
-      scented the harvest fair.
-
-    Like ravens they quickly gather, like tigers
-      they watch their prey.
-    Poor people! with hearts so happy, they sang
-      as they toiled away!
-    Till the murderous eyeballs glistened, and the
-      tomahawk leaped out
-    And the banks of the green St. Lawrence
-      echoed the savage shout.
-
-
-
-[Illustration: Like tigers they watch their prey.]
-
-
-
-    "O mother of Christ, have pity!" shrieked the
-      women in despair;
-    "This is no time for praying," cried the young
-      Madeleine Vercheres;
-    "Aux armes! aux armes! les Iroquois! quick
-      to your arms and guns,
-    Fight for your God and country, and the lives
-      of the innocent ones."
-
-    And she sped like a deer of the mountain, when
-      beagles press close behind,
-    And the feet that would follow after must be
-      swift as the prairie wind.
-    Alas! for the men and women and little ones
-      that day,
-    For the road it was long and weary, and the
-      fort it was far away.
-
-    But the fawn had outstripped the hunters, and
-      the palisades drew near,
-    And soon from the inner gateway the war-bugle
-      rang out clear,
-    Gallant and clear it sounded, with never a note
-      of despair--
-    'T was a soldier of France's challenge, from
-      the young Madeleine Vercheres!
-
-    "And this is my little garrison, my brothers
-      Louis and Paul?
-    With soldiers two, and a cripple? may the
-      Virgin pray for us all!
-    But we 've powder and guns in plenty, and
-      we 'll fight to the latest breath,
-    And if need be, for God and country, die a
-      brave soldier's death.
-
-    "Load all the carabines quickly, and whenever
-      you sight the foe
-    Fire from the upper turret and loopholes down below,
-    Keep up the fire, brave soldiers, though the
-      fight may be fierce and long,
-    And they 'll think our little garrison is more
-      than a hundred strong."
-
-    So spake the maiden Madeleine, and she roused
-      the Norman blood
-    That seemed for a moment sleeping, and sent
-      it like a flood
-    Through every heart around her, and they
-      fought the red Iroquois
-    As fought in the old-time battles the soldiers
-      of Carignan.
-
-    And they say the black clouds gathered, and a
-      tempest swept the sky,
-    And the roar of the thunder mingled with the
-      forest tiger's cry,
-    But still the garrison fought on, while the lightning's
-      jagged spear
-    Tore a hole in the night's dark curtain, and
-      showed them a foeman near.
-
-    And the sun rose up in the morning, and the
-      color of blood was he,
-    Gazing down from the heavens on the little
-      company
-    "Behold, my friends," cried the maiden,
-      "'t is a warning lest we forget,
-    Though the night saw us do our duty, our
-      work is not finished yet."
-
-    And six days followed each other, and feeble
-      her limbs became
-    Yet the maid never sought her pillow, and the
-      flash of the carabine's flame
-    Illumined the powder-smoked faces, aye, even
-      when hope seemed gone,
-    And she only smiled on her comrades, and told
-      them to fight, fight on.
-
-    And she blew a blast on the bugle, and lo!
-      from the forest black.
-    Merrily, merrily ringing, an answer came
-      pealing back.
-    Oh, pleasant and sweet it sounded, borne on
-      the morning air,
-    For it heralded fifty soldiers, with gallant De
-      la Monni�re.
-
-
-
-[Illustration: "Saluted the brave young captain."]
-
-
-
-    And when he beheld the maiden, the soldier of
-      Carignan,
-    And looked on the little garrison that fought
-      the red Iroquois
-    And held their own in the battle, for six long
-      weary days,
-    He stood for a moment speechless, and marvelled
-      at woman's ways.
-
-    Then he beckoned the men behind him, and
-      steadily they advance
-    And with carabines uplifted the veterans of
-      France
-    Saluted the brave young Captain so timidly
-      standing there,
-    And they fired a volley in honor of Madeleine
-      Vercheres.
-
-    And this, my dear, is the story of the maiden
-      Madeleine.
-    God grant that we in Canada may never see
-      again
-    Such cruel wars and massacre, in waking or in
-      dream,
-    As our fathers and mothers saw, my child, in
-      the days of the old r�gime!

-Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and
-permanent future for Project Gutenberg(tm) and future generations. To

-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any
-statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside
-the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways
-including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate,
-please visit: http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate

-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg(tm) electronic
-works.
-
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg(tm)
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
-Gutenberg(tm) eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg(tm) eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. unless
-a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks
-in compliance with any particular paper edition.
-
-Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's eBook
-number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII,
-compressed (zipped), HTML and others.
-
-Corrected _editions_ of our eBooks replace the old file and take over
-the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed.
-_Versions_ based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving
-new filenames and etext numbers.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
-
-    http://www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg(tm),
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

-public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing
-the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely
-distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest array of

-with the IRS.</p>
-<p class="pnext">The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations

-approach us with offers to donate.</p>
-<p class="pnext">International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make

-   |   Don't I work hard enough on de paddle, an'

-   |       still you don't seem to go--

-   |   No win' at all on de fronte side, an' current

-   |       she don't be strong,

-   |   Den w'y are you lak' lazy feller, too sleepy for

-   |

-   |   "I 'member de tam, w'en you jomp de sam'

-   |       as deer wit' de wolf behin',

-   |   An' brochet on de top de water, you scare

-   |   For he know it 's easy git out de way, w'en

-   |       you was a-passin' by"----

-   |

-   |   I 'm spikin' dis way, jus' de oder day, w'en I 'm

-   |       out wit' de ole canoe

-   |   Crossin' de point w'ere I see, las' fall, wan very

-   |       beeg caribou,

-   |   Wen somebody say, "Phil-o-rum, mon vieux,

-   |       wat 's matter wit' you youse'f?"

-   |   An' who do you s'pose was talkin'?  W'y de

-   |       poor ole canoe shese'f.

-   |

-   |   O yass, I 'm scare w'en I 'm sittin' dere, an'

-   |       she 's callin' ma nam' dat way.

-   |   "Phil-o-rum Juneau, w'y you spik so moche,

-   |       you 're off on de head to-day:

-   |   Can't be you forget, ole feller, you an' me

-   |       we're not too young,

-   |   An' if I 'm lookin' so ole lak' you, I t'ink I

-   |       will close ma tongue.

-   |

-   |   "You should feel ashame, for you 're alway

-   |       blame, w'en it is n't ma fault at all,

-   |   For I 'm tryin' to do bes' I can for you on

-   |       summer-tam, spring, an' fall.

-   |   How offen you drown on de reever, if I 'm

-   |       not lookin' out for you

-   |   W'en you 're takin' too moche on de w'isky,

-   |       some night comin' down de Soo.

-   |

-   |   "De firse tam we go on de Wessoneau, no

-   |       feller can beat us den

-   |   For you 're purty strong man wit' de paddle,

-   |       but dat 's long ago, ma frien',

-   |   An' win' she can blow off de mountain, an'

-   |       tonder an' rain may come,

-   |   But camp see us bote on de evening--you

-   |       know dat was true, Phil-o-rum.

-   |

-   |   "An' who 's your horse, too, but your ole

-   |       canoe, an' w'en you feel cole an' wet,

-   |   Who was your house w'en I 'm upside down,

-   |       an' onder de roof you get,

-   |   Wit' rain ronnin' down ma back, Baptême! till

-   |       I 'm gettin' de rheumateez,

-   |   An' I never say not'ing at all moi-meme, but

-   |       let you do jus' you please?

-   |

-   |   "You t'ink it was right, kip me out all night

-   |       on reever side down below,

-   |   An' even 'bon soir' you was never say, but

-   |       off on de camp you go,

-   |   Leffin' your poor ole canoe behin', lyin' dere

-   |       on de groun',

-   |   Watchin' de moon on de water, an' de bat

-   |       flyin' all aroun'?

-   |

-   |   "Oh, dat's lonesome t'ing hear de grey owl

-   |       sing up on de beeg pine tree!

-   |   An' many long night she kip me awake till sun

-   |       on de Eas' I see,

-   |   An' den you come down on de morning for

-   |       start on some more voyage,

-   |   An' only t'ing decen' you do all day, is carry

-   |       me on portage.

-   |

-   |   "Dat 's way, Phil-o-rum, rheumateez she

-   |       come, wit' pain ronnin' troo' ma side,

-   |   Wan leetle hole here, 'noder beeg wan dere,

-   |       dat not'ing can never hide,

-   |   Don't do any good feex me up agen, no matter

-   |       how moche you try,

-   |   For w'en we come ole an' our work she 's

-   |       done, bote man an' canoe mus' die."

-   |

-   |   Wall, she talk dat way mebbe mos' de day till

-   |       we 're passin' some beaver dam,

-   |   An' wan de young beaver, he 's mak' hees tail

-   |       come down on de water Flam!

-   |   I never see de canoe so scare, she jomp nearly

-   |       two, t'ree feet,

-   |   I t'ink she was goin' for ronne away, an' she

-   |       shut up de mout' toute suite.

-   |

-   |   It mak' me feel queer, de strange t'ing I hear,

-   |       an' I 'm glad she don't spik no more,

-   |   But soon as we fin' ourse'f arrive over dere on

-   |       de 'noder shore

-   |   I tak' dat canoe lak' de lady, an' carry her off

-   |       wit' me,

-   |   For I 'm sorry de way I 'm treat her, an' she

-   |       know more dan me, sapree!

-   |

-   |   Yass, dat 's smart canoe, an' I know it 's true,

-   |       w'at she 's spikin' wit' me dat day,

-   |   I 'm not de young feller I use to be, w'en work

-   |       she was only play,

-   |   An' I know I was comin' closer on place w'ere

-   |       I mus' tak' care,

-   |   W'ere de mos' worse current 's de las' wan too,

-   |       de current of Dead Riviere.

-   |

-   |   You can only steer, an' if rock be near, wit'

-   |       wave dashin' all aroun',

-   |   Better mak' leetle prayer, for on Dead Riviere,

-   |       some very smart man get drown;

-   |   But if you be locky an' watch youse'f, mebbe

-   |       reever won't seem so wide,

-   |   An' firse t'ing you know you 'll ronne ashore,

-   |       safe on de 'noder side.

-     MADELEINE VERCHERES.

-

-.. vspace:: 2

-

-..

-

-   |   I've told you many a tale, my child, of the

-   |       old heroic days,

-   |   Of Indian wars and massacre, of villages ablaze

-   |   With savage torch, from Ville Marie to the

-   |       Mission of Trois Rivieres;

-   |   But never have I told you yet of Madeleine Vercheres.

-   |

-   |   Summer had come with its blossoms, and gaily

-   |       the robin sang,

-   |   And deep in the forest arches, the axe of the

-   |       woodman rang;

-   |   Again in the waving meadows, the sun-browned

-   |       farmers met

-   |   And out on the green St. Lawrence, the fisherman

-   |       spread his net.

-   |

-   |   And so through the pleasant season, till the

-   |       days of October came

-   |   When children wrought with their parents, and

-   |       even the old and lame

-   |   With tottering frames and footsteps, their

-   |       feeble labors lent

-   |   At the gathering of the harvest le bon Dieu

-   |       himself had sent.

-   |

-   |   For news there was none of battle, from the

-   |       forts on the Richelieu

-   |   To the gates of the ancient city, where the flag

-   |       of King Louis flew;

-   |   All peaceful the skies hung over the seigneurie

-   |       of Vercheres,

-   |   Like the calm that so often cometh ere the

-   |       hurricane rends the air.

-   |

-   |   And never a thought of danger had the Seigneur,

-   |       sailing away

-   |   To join the soldiers of Carignan, where down

-   |       at Quebec they lay,

-   |   But smiled on his little daughter, the maiden

-   |       Madeleine,

-   |   And a necklet of jewels promised her, when

-   |       home he should come again.

-   |

-   |   And ever the days passed swiftly, and careless

-   |       the workmen grew,

-   |   For the months they seemed a hundred since

-   |       the last war-bugle blew.

-   |   Ah, little they dreamt on their pillows the

-   |       farmers of Vercheres,

-   |   That the wolves of the southern forest had

-   |       scented the harvest fair.

-   |

-   |   Like ravens they quickly gather, like tigers

-   |       they watch their prey.

-   |   Poor people! with hearts so happy, they sang

-   |       as they toiled away!

-   |   Till the murderous eyeballs glistened, and the

-   |       tomahawk leaped out

-   |   And the banks of the green St. Lawrence

-   |       echoed the savage shout.

-

-   |   "O mother of Christ, have pity!" shrieked the

-   |       women in despair;

-   |   "This is no time for praying," cried the young

-   |       Madeleine Vercheres;

-   |   "Aux armes! aux armes! les Iroquois! quick

-   |       to your arms and guns,

-   |   Fight for your God and country, and the lives

-   |       of the innocent ones."

-   |

-   |   And she sped like a deer of the mountain, when

-   |       beagles press close behind,

-   |   And the feet that would follow after must be

-   |       swift as the prairie wind.

-   |   Alas! for the men and women and little ones

-   |       that day,

-   |   For the road it was long and weary, and the

-   |       fort it was far away.

-   |

-   |   But the fawn had outstripped the hunters, and

-   |       the palisades drew near,

-   |   And soon from the inner gateway the war-bugle

-   |       rang out clear,

-   |   Gallant and clear it sounded, with never a note

-   |       of despair--

-   |   'T was a soldier of France's challenge, from

-   |       the young Madeleine Vercheres!

-   |

-   |   "And this is my little garrison, my brothers

-   |       Louis and Paul?

-   |   With soldiers two, and a cripple? may the

-   |       Virgin pray for us all!

-   |   But we 've powder and guns in plenty, and

-   |       we 'll fight to the latest breath,

-   |   And if need be, for God and country, die a

-   |       brave soldier's death.

-   |

-   |   "Load all the carabines quickly, and whenever

-   |       you sight the foe

-   |   Fire from the upper turret and loopholes down below,

-   |   Keep up the fire, brave soldiers, though the

-   |       fight may be fierce and long,

-   |   And they 'll think our little garrison is more

-   |       than a hundred strong."

-   |

-   |   So spake the maiden Madeleine, and she roused

-   |       the Norman blood

-   |   That seemed for a moment sleeping, and sent

-   |       it like a flood

-   |   Through every heart around her, and they

-   |       fought the red Iroquois

-   |   As fought in the old-time battles the soldiers

-   |       of Carignan.

-   |

-   |   And they say the black clouds gathered, and a

-   |       tempest swept the sky,

-   |   And the roar of the thunder mingled with the

-   |       forest tiger's cry,

-   |   But still the garrison fought on, while the lightning's

-   |       jagged spear

-   |   Tore a hole in the night's dark curtain, and

-   |       showed them a foeman near.

-   |

-   |   And the sun rose up in the morning, and the

-   |       color of blood was he,

-   |   Gazing down from the heavens on the little

-   |       company

-   |   "Behold, my friends," cried the maiden,

-   |       "'t is a warning lest we forget,

-   |   Though the night saw us do our duty, our

-   |       work is not finished yet."

-   |

-   |   And six days followed each other, and feeble

-   |       her limbs became

-   |   Yet the maid never sought her pillow, and the

-   |       flash of the carabine's flame

-   |   Illumined the powder-smoked faces, aye, even

-   |       when hope seemed gone,

-   |   And she only smiled on her comrades, and told

-   |       them to fight, fight on.

-   |

-   |   And she blew a blast on the bugle, and lo!

-   |       from the forest black.

-   |   Merrily, merrily ringing, an answer came

-   |       pealing back.

-   |   Oh, pleasant and sweet it sounded, borne on

-   |       the morning air,

-   |   For it heralded fifty soldiers, with gallant De

-   |       la Monnière.

-

-   |   And when he beheld the maiden, the soldier of

-   |       Carignan,

-   |   And looked on the little garrison that fought

-   |       the red Iroquois

-   |   And held their own in the battle, for six long

-   |       weary days,

-   |   He stood for a moment speechless, and marvelled

-   |       at woman's ways.

-   |

-   |   Then he beckoned the men behind him, and

-   |       steadily they advance

-   |   And with carabines uplifted the veterans of

-   |       France

-   |   Saluted the brave young Captain so timidly

-   |       standing there,

-   |   And they fired a volley in honor of Madeleine

-   |       Vercheres.

-   |

-   |   And this, my dear, is the story of the maiden

-   |       Madeleine.

-   |   God grant that we in Canada may never see

-   |       again

-   |   Such cruel wars and massacre, in waking or in

-   |       dream,

-   |   As our fathers and mothers saw, my child, in

-   |       the days of the old régime!

-                          MADELEINE VERCHERES.
-
-
-    I've told you many a tale, my child, of the
-      old heroic days,
-    Of Indian wars and massacre, of villages ablaze
-    With savage torch, from Ville Marie to the
-      Mission of Trois Rivieres;
-    But never have I told you yet of Madeleine Vercheres.
-
-    Summer had come with its blossoms, and gaily
-      the robin sang,
-    And deep in the forest arches, the axe of the
-      woodman rang;
-    Again in the waving meadows, the sun-browned
-      farmers met
-    And out on the green St. Lawrence, the fisherman
-      spread his net.
-
-    And so through the pleasant season, till the
-      days of October came
-    When children wrought with their parents, and
-      even the old and lame
-    With tottering frames and footsteps, their
-      feeble labors lent
-    At the gathering of the harvest le bon Dieu
-      himself had sent.
-
-    For news there was none of battle, from the
-      forts on the Richelieu
-    To the gates of the ancient city, where the flag
-      of King Louis flew;
-    All peaceful the skies hung over the seigneurie
-      of Vercheres,
-    Like the calm that so often cometh ere the
-      hurricane rends the air.
-
-    And never a thought of danger had the Seigneur,
-      sailing away
-    To join the soldiers of Carignan, where down
-      at Quebec they lay,
-    But smiled on his little daughter, the maiden
-      Madeleine,
-    And a necklet of jewels promised her, when
-      home he should come again.
-
-    And ever the days passed swiftly, and careless
-      the workmen grew,
-    For the months they seemed a hundred since
-      the last war-bugle blew.
-    Ah, little they dreamt on their pillows the
-      farmers of Vercheres,
-    That the wolves of the southern forest had
-      scented the harvest fair.
-
-    Like ravens they quickly gather, like tigers
-      they watch their prey.
-    Poor people! with hearts so happy, they sang
-      as they toiled away!
-    Till the murderous eyeballs glistened, and the
-      tomahawk leaped out
-    And the banks of the green St. Lawrence
-      echoed the savage shout.
-
-
-
-[Illustration: Like tigers they watch their prey.]
-
-
-
-    "O mother of Christ, have pity!" shrieked the
-      women in despair;
-    "This is no time for praying," cried the young
-      Madeleine Vercheres;
-    "Aux armes! aux armes! les Iroquois! quick
-      to your arms and guns,
-    Fight for your God and country, and the lives
-      of the innocent ones."
-
-    And she sped like a deer of the mountain, when
-      beagles press close behind,
-    And the feet that would follow after must be
-      swift as the prairie wind.
-    Alas! for the men and women and little ones
-      that day,
-    For the road it was long and weary, and the
-      fort it was far away.
-
-    But the fawn had outstripped the hunters, and
-      the palisades drew near,
-    And soon from the inner gateway the war-bugle
-      rang out clear,
-    Gallant and clear it sounded, with never a note
-      of despair--
-    'T was a soldier of France's challenge, from
-      the young Madeleine Vercheres!
-
-    "And this is my little garrison, my brothers
-      Louis and Paul?
-    With soldiers two, and a cripple? may the
-      Virgin pray for us all!
-    But we 've powder and guns in plenty, and
-      we 'll fight to the latest breath,
-    And if need be, for God and country, die a
-      brave soldier's death.
-
-    "Load all the carabines quickly, and whenever
-      you sight the foe
-    Fire from the upper turret and loopholes down below,
-    Keep up the fire, brave soldiers, though the
-      fight may be fierce and long,
-    And they 'll think our little garrison is more
-      than a hundred strong."
-
-    So spake the maiden Madeleine, and she roused
-      the Norman blood
-    That seemed for a moment sleeping, and sent
-      it like a flood
-    Through every heart around her, and they
-      fought the red Iroquois
-    As fought in the old-time battles the soldiers
-      of Carignan.
-
-    And they say the black clouds gathered, and a
-      tempest swept the sky,
-    And the roar of the thunder mingled with the
-      forest tiger's cry,
-    But still the garrison fought on, while the lightning's
-      jagged spear
-    Tore a hole in the night's dark curtain, and
-      showed them a foeman near.
-
-    And the sun rose up in the morning, and the
-      color of blood was he,
-    Gazing down from the heavens on the little
-      company
-    "Behold, my friends," cried the maiden,
-      "'t is a warning lest we forget,
-    Though the night saw us do our duty, our
-      work is not finished yet."
-
-    And six days followed each other, and feeble
-      her limbs became
-    Yet the maid never sought her pillow, and the
-      flash of the carabine's flame
-    Illumined the powder-smoked faces, aye, even
-      when hope seemed gone,
-    And she only smiled on her comrades, and told
-      them to fight, fight on.
-
-    And she blew a blast on the bugle, and lo!
-      from the forest black.
-    Merrily, merrily ringing, an answer came
-      pealing back.
-    Oh, pleasant and sweet it sounded, borne on
-      the morning air,
-    For it heralded fifty soldiers, with gallant De
-      la Monniere.
-
-
-
-[Illustration: "Saluted the brave young captain."]
-
-
-
-    And when he beheld the maiden, the soldier of
-      Carignan,
-    And looked on the little garrison that fought
-      the red Iroquois
-    And held their own in the battle, for six long
-      weary days,
-    He stood for a moment speechless, and marvelled
-      at woman's ways.
-
-    Then he beckoned the men behind him, and
-      steadily they advance
-    And with carabines uplifted the veterans of
-      France
-    Saluted the brave young Captain so timidly
-      standing there,
-    And they fired a volley in honor of Madeleine
-      Vercheres.
-
-    And this, my dear, is the story of the maiden
-      Madeleine.
-    God grant that we in Canada may never see
-      again
-    Such cruel wars and massacre, in waking or in
-      dream,
-    As our fathers and mothers saw, my child, in
-      the days of the old regime!

-
-
-Project Gutenberg(tm) is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
-including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
-because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
-people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg(tm)'s
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg(tm) collection will remain
-freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and
-permanent future for Project Gutenberg(tm) and future generations. To
-learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and
-how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation
-
-
-Project Gutenberg(tm) depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where
-we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
-visit http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any
-statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside
-the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways
-including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate,
-please visit: http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate

-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg(tm) electronic
-works.
-
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg(tm)
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
-Gutenberg(tm) eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg(tm) eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. unless
-a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks
-in compliance with any particular paper edition.
-
-Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's eBook
-number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII,
-compressed (zipped), HTML and others.
-
-Corrected _editions_ of our eBooks replace the old file and take over
-the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed.
-_Versions_ based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving
-new filenames and etext numbers.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
-
-    http://www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg(tm),
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
