And look far out on the waters OF the
river, cleaning white.
The clouds that drape the heavens Ger
the earth have cast
A sombre hue unbroken. But while 1
look, at last,
There bursts upon my vision a Hood of
radiant light,
A blending OF gold and purple, as the sun
is lost TO sight.
Gently the tints are changing to a deep
blush OF pink
That over the cloud and the river throws
one parting link.
II seems to llnger a moment ere II seeks
its western shrouds
To enfold its light I'm the waters, and
fringe each passing cloud.
But softly II fades. as l watch II, from

To richer shade of purple-and day
