Prairies vast, or valleys low;

All to find out the rarest species,

That he might the star-world show.

Then he sought the ring of magic,

With his forest stores so rare;

And within the starry basket,

Rose with all his emblems fair.

Joys of greeting—joys of seeing—

Hand to hand, and eye to eye;

These o'ercrowned with smiles and laughing,
