And dreamy unreality!
Floating, airy, fairy things
Soaring high on gauzy wings
These, the spirits of the flowers
Ihat once clothed the summer bowers!

Deck the fields and waysides all,
Lavish of magniflcence
IN a gracious Opulence.

Hold the gorgeous gleam and glow.
Grasp the feeting, golden hours;
