THE SUMMERS QUEEN.
4s BY CHARLES Q. HILL,
Quick the verdure springs,
From the fruitful ground,
Bweet the music rings,
Through the welkin rounds
Earth, and sky, and air,
Vocal seemed 10 be,
Melody most rare
Nature in her glee-
Echoes softly float,
Odors balmy stray,
Where the tuneful thrca)
Thrills the mellow lay.
Where the fountain leaps,
And the sreamlets glide,
Where the ivy creeps
BY the waters side.
Where the mossy stone,
mid the cool retreat,
Like the Pleads throne,
'Tsmpss the weary fess!
Where the blossoms vie
With the glowing green,
There the zephyrs sigh
To the Summers Queen.
