Roars in the maples and the topmost pine.

High in the hills the solitary thrush

Tunes magically his music of fine dreams,

In briary dells, by boulder-broken streams;

And wide and far on nebulous fields aflush

The mellow morning gleams.

The orange cone-flowers purple-bossed are there,

The meadow's bold-eyed gypsies deep of hue,

And slender hawkweed tall and softly fair,

And rosy tops of fleabane veiled with dew.
