beauty. and knecling beside the sleep
or, kissed his lipe.)
In the sunny land Of Itly.
Near where the Arno flows
Mongst the waysidc hedges loafy.
Young Milton did reposc;
For 50 faint he'd grown and weary
That sought the travler rest.
In his dream OF purcst fancies.
in his sleeping hours were blcst.
And while quiet in sccluslon,
Unconscious of the day,
WANDERED forth the sleeper's spirit
In Elysian fields To stray,
But. however sweet his visions
lie missed sweetcr, still,
For sleeping thoughts enchant us.
While waking thoughts enthrill
Up the shaded. ancient pathway
Came plebeian vcrginc fair.
And a-humming airs Italian.
She spiod the sleeper there:
Then her eyes drank in his beauty
lie knew not what he missed
With beating heart and smitten,
The slccper's lips she kissed.
