The Morning Cloud

One lovely vernal morn, saw,
Just as the sun shone on the lea,
A cloud up from the vale withdraw,
And to the distant hilltop flee.
'Twas silvcry in the dawn, and soft,
Breathed from the crystal stream below,
And as it lightly stole aloh,
Ii seemed u wand'rng fleece OF snow.
Awhile it lowered round the hill,
As 10th to leave the vale beneath.
Or prone to tauu; the downward rlll,
And play DER all its waving wreath.
Then, startled by the breeze it flew,
Till, onward round the rugged rock
Its snowy tinscl veil 1t drew,
Then features of the crag to mock.
Or il might hope to hide what wore
Naught Of the hushng morn's attire;
Itself the while rejecting more
The spreading that DER hill and spire.
But now the sovereign source of day
High and more high respondent towers,
With burning flame and heating ray,
To claim it with the dews and flowers.
The COUGHING wales with light now fill
The lee shines in lucid shroud-
The shclt'ring shadow OF the hill
Can shield no more the morning cloud.
And, rising from its ambush there,
u spreads and lessons on the sky.
