TIE HILLS OF SANTA CRUZ.
From TO1rsff


I've seen the far-off Apennines
Melt into dreamy skies,
I've seen the peaks that Switzers love
In snowy grandeur rise;
And many more. to which the world
IFS praise cannot refuse
But Of them all. love the best
The hills OF Santa Cruz.
Oh, how sercney glad they stand
Beneath the morning sum-
Oh. how dIvincly fair they are
When morn TO noon hath ruul
How virginia. their Businesses,
Where no Bacchante wOos
Tho Kisses OF the grapes that grow
On hills OF Santa Cruz
And then. how beautiful they look,
Just when the sun departs
With benediction on their brows
And homesteads on their hearts
Oh. hills Of Promise. Peace and Joy
No heart conld well refuse
To own the charm OF your delights,
Dear hills Of Santa Cruz
When the reluctant sun hath gone
And left ye lone and sweet,
What rapture then TO trace the line
where earth and heaven meet
So low We lie beneath tho sky
We ne'er can yon accuse
OF hardness or repeilant pride,
Kind hills of Santa Cruz
Al. no; We are forever dear
And restful to the eyes
Tho ever changcful. yet each change
Is but glad surprise.
'Twixt gentle skies and gentle seas
Your outlines never lose
That tenderness that Eden knew,
Calm hills OF Santa Cruz
Ye stand before ms like to those
Meek angels sent OF God
Eho chanfed blessings on the earth's
ImbrUed and guilty sod:
so yc, sweet ministers of hope,
In mind and heart lnfuse
Peace and good wlll-O, dear
Dear hills Of Santa Cruz
And II be the first to lay
The laurcl5 at your feet,
Why, then my heart can only say
The task Is passing sweet
For sure ! am aud sure We are
Who ne'cr your outlines lose,
There arc no hills to match our own
Glad hills OF Santa Cruzi
