SIXTEEN TO ONE

On the pine-clad mountain hillsides
Where the winds in riots wander
And the music of the tree boughs
On the rocky ramparts squander
This, their chanting, as they run:
Sixteen to one! Sixteen to one!
In the valleys peaceful shadows,
Where the bluebells', daisies dwelling
Is beside. the murmuring brooklet
Whose sweet voice, from nature swelling
This note trills in shade and sun:
Sixteen to one! Sixteen to one!
BY the shingly oceans borders.
Where the mighty breakers home is.
And the sea fowls swift winged f1yings,
In the midst of where the foam is;
Same the note that's here begun:
Sixteen to one. Sixteen to one!
East then go. List to the spindlesl
Westward then, to natures gardens!
South then. fast TO fields of cotton.
Northward. last, where nature hardens,
What there S the cry fore day is done?
