1 was dreaming today OF Dixie, for it seemed
like Dixie day
With the soft south winl Ger the clover in
that old bioom-laden way,
And the beautiful blue SKY yopder with its
feecy cloudlets born
On the breast of the violet breezes like sails
of the ships of morn.
Dreaming today of Dixie.
There meath its skies of blue,
With song in my hoart that hungered
To interpret unto you
dreamt of the dear old valleys where
the dreams of Virginia soar.
The hills and the dells of Dixie and the
waves of the old sea-hore:
The ripple of Rappahannoek. the sweet OF
the lordly York,
And many stream of the silver dream
where the cascade riyulets fork,
Dreaming today of Dixie

The sweet of its silver waters
The bloom of its balmy DELFT
