Where the snovy-piumed clematis
Translated for her, gratis,
What the breezes sung and sighed
And the dainty tendsrncsses
OF sunbeams on her trcsses
Left her tranced In the caresses

The linnets were a-cooing,
And the dapper bees a-wooing,
And the dews were interviewing
All the hower-cozied lays

The zephyr, lone and dngle,
Came up 10 intermingle
In the leaf-entangied maze.

Her heart its riches summing,
Till suddenly drumming
From the gravel walk arose.
A hope triumphant filed her.
And clear the words that thrilled her.
