Morning walks forth in her brauty's pride,
And leading band of laughing hours, HI. 4
Brushes the dew from the nodding flowers;
Oh cherriy then my voice is heard,
MiDglng with that Of the soaring bird,


Who flingeth abroad his mathis loud,
As he freshens his wing in the cold gray cloud.
But when evening has quilted her sheltering
6 asd yew, a


Drowsily flying and weaving anew,
Her dusky meshes o'er land and sea-
How gently, O Sleep, fall thy poppies on me!
For drink Water, pure cold and bright,
And my dreams are of Heaven the live long

SO, hurrah for thee Water hurrah, hurrah
/ Thou art silver and gold, thou art riband and

Hurrah! for bright water! Hurrah, hurrah
