| shrink beneath its wrath,
And dred this torrent rushing by,
Which lnIercepIs our path.
Father these California skies,
You said were bright and bland
But where, 10 night, my pillow lies.
lis this the golden land!
Ills well my little sister sleeps,
Or else she too would grieve
But only see how still she keeps
She has not stirred since eve.
I'll Kiss her, and perhaps she'll speak
She'll kiss me back | know
Oh father, only touch her check
'fis cold as very snow.
Father you DO not shed a tear,
Yet little Jane has died
Oh promise, when you leave me here
To lay me by her side.
And when you pass this torrent cold,
We've come so far to see,
And you go on, beyond for gold,
o think Of Jane and me.
And then she bade them all adieu,
With one sad, silent kiss,
And sweety smiled as angels came
TO bear her home 10 bliss.
