Where the faded flower shall freshen,—

Freshen never more to fade;

Where the shaded sky shall brighten,—

Brighten never more to shade:

Where the sun-blaze never scorches;

Where the star-beams cease to chill;

Where no tempest stirs the echoes

Of the wood, or wave, or hill:

Where the morn shall wake in gladness,

And the moon the joy prolong,
