Before the rising sun,
To slake their thirst in sllvery stream

To see the hungry porksr fed,
And hear him grunt his thanks;
To rouse the calves from their grassy bed,
To shake their dFowsy tanks:
To draw from the generous COW her store,
With young hands strong and free.
Till the Drumming pail is running Ger
With the foaming luxury;
To haste to the garden with hoe and seed
While the dew is on the spray,
To plant, TO trim, to hos and weed
This morning hours away,
To raise the flowers for the honey bee.
With their petals bright and fair;
@ love the budding flowers to see,

A sudden death in liie's full Primo
A desolatc heart where blanched and dry
Show the bIghted forms Of memory
