Sheltered in a golden coating;
O'er the dreamy, listless haze,
White and dainty cloudlets floating;
Winking at the blushing trees,

Of the southward flying swallow
Sweet and smiling are thy ways,

Green the grass-lawn stretched before them
While the apple blossoms white
Hung in rich profusion o'er them.
