But joy had not been better served if each

Had worn a diadem.

Ah, bosoms here are strangely blest

With perfect bliss that glows,

And he above all others lives the best,

Who has the fewest woes!

"AWAY, AWAY, FROM THE SULTRY WAYS."

Away, away, from the sultry ways

Where the pleasures fall and fade,

To the bannered corn and the meadowed bloom
