It was beautiful to stand and watch
Tho fountains crystal turn to gems,
And from the sky such colors catch,
As if twere raining diadems;
But this, with all its charming grace,
Cannot my shabby Hat replace.
Dear Is to me the little stream,
Whose unimprisoned waters run
Wild as the changes Of a dream,
By rock and glen, through shade and sun
But dearer still than all the rest,
Is one of Vain and Walkers Best.
Flowers on its grassy margin spring,
Fish in its eddying circles play,
Birds midst the alder branches sing,
Flocks through the verdant meadows stray,
And Maud locks up with sweetest smile
At my new Hattie latest style.
