Excerpt from Cape Carols: And Miscellaneous Verses The "Stream of Song" in South Africa partakes of the character of most of its rivers. Scanty in volume, it struggles along in an obscure channel, amid dreary and untuneful surroundings, only glancing in the sunlight and beautifying the scene at widely separated intervals. The author of the following fugitive verses - written during some pleasant hours of relaxation in a long and busy official life - hence gathers hope that his fellow colonists will not bury his small tributary beneath the arid sands of unappreciative sneers and carping criticisms; but that with a generous allowance for circumstances, they will rather clear its course, and hail it as possibly a harbinger of more powerful and diffusive affluents, which in the glorious future now dawning on our adopted country will, it is hoped, bear their part in spreading its mental and moral wastes with grace and gladness.
