IN THE CLOVER.

In the pastures clover deep
There | love to lie and sleep;
over me the placid sky
Blue save where his golden eye
out OF heavens window looks
In the mirrors of the brooks
That Apollo may behold
How like me, too, he grows old.
All about me billows blown,
Emerald as oceans own
BY the drowsy gales that blow
Catching fragrance as they go.
CruSoe of that clover isle
There | come TO dream awhile,
ear from worry, strife or din.
Shut my island home within.
Deep drawn breatns of why air
Are the nectar / drink there.
Hebe ne'er her drafts served up
Trimming such sapphire cup!
ThesSaly ne'er grew a vine
Yielding such sparkling wine,
Drinking which, It's mine to feel
Blissful languor Ger me steal
Give me then that clover bed,
With its blue roof overhead
There TO lie and dream away
All the tedious hours of day.
Pan shall cheer me with his reed,
Fawns shall dance across the mead,
Daphnis tend his snowy herds
and TneocrifGs make words
Mingle in soft melody
In my slumber-Siclly
Set the clover sea amid
