Who has not dreamed a world of bliss Oo a bright sunny noon like this, Couched by his natire brook's green maze, With comrade of his boyish days, While all around them seemed to be Just as in joyous infancy'/ Who has not loved at such an hour, Upon that heath, in birchen bower, Lulled in the poet's dreamy mood, It? wild and sunny solitude? i ile o'er the waste of purple ling You mark a sultry glimmering; Silence herself there seems to sleep, Wrapped in a slumber long and aeep, Where slowly stray those lonely sheep Through the tall foxglove's crimson bloom And gleaming of the scattered broom. Love you not then, to list and hear The crackling of the gorse-flowers near, Pouring an orange-scented tide Of fragrance o'er the desert wide? To hear the buzzard's whimpering shrill, Hovering above you high and still? The twittering of the bird that dwells AuiODg the heath's delicious bells? While round your bed, o'er fern and blade, Insects in green and gold arrayed, The sun's gay tribes have lightly strayed; And sweeter sound their humming wiDgs Than the proud minstrel's echoing strings. —William Hoivitt. The poet has o'erlooked the purling stream So loved and sought by joyous angler, The beauties of field and bower gleam Full brighter and pleasing to happy dangler, Who with pliant rod and willow creel Is waitiDg on the music of the reel.
