His very heart athirst	A
To gaze at nature in her green array	B
Upon the ship's tall side he stands possess'd	A
With visions prompted by intense desire	C
Fair fields appear below such as he left	A
Far distant such as he would die to find	A
He seeks them headlong and is seen no more Cowper	C
	-
	-
The hollow dash of waves the ceaseless roar	D
Silence ye billows vex my soul no more	D
	-
There's a spring in the woods by my sunny home	E
Afar from the dark sea's tossing foam	E
Oh the fall of that fountain is sweet to hear	F
As a song from the shore to the sailor's ear	F
	-
And the sparkle which up to the sun it throws	G
Thro' the feathery fern and the olive boughs	H
And the gleam on its path as it steals away	B
Into deeper shades from the sultry day	B
And the large water lilies that o'er its bed	A
Their pearly leaves to the soft light spread	A
They haunt me I dream of that bright spring's flow	I
I thirst for its rills like a wounded roe	I
	-
Be still thou sea bird with thy clanging cry	J
My spirit sickens as thy wing sweeps by	J
	-
Know ye my home with the lulling sound	A
Of leaves from the lime and the chestnut round	A
Know ye it brethren where bower'd it lies	K
Under the purple of southern skies	K
With the streamy gold of the sun that shines	L
In thro' the cloud of its clustering vines	L
And the summer breath of the myrtle flowers	M
Borne from the mountain in dewy hours	M
And the fire fly's glance thro' the dark'ning shades	N
Like shooting stars in the forest glades	N
And the scent of the citron at eve's dim fall	O
Speak have ye known have ye felt them all	O
	-
The heavy rolling surge the rocking mast	A
Hush give my dream's deep music way thou blast	A
	-
Oh the glad sounds of the joyous earth	P
The notes of the singing cicala's mirth	P
The murmurs that live in the mountain pines	L
The sighing of reeds as the day declines	L
The wings flitting home thro' the crimson glow	I
That steeps the wood when the sun is low	I
The voice of the night bird that sends a thrill	Q
To the heart of the leaves when the winds are still	Q
I hear them round me they rise they swell	R
They call back my spirit with Hope to dwell	R
They come with a breath from the fresh spring time	S
And waken my youth in its hour of prime	S
	-
The white foam dashes high away away	B
Shroud my green land no more thou blinding spray	B
	-
It is there down the mountains I see the sweep	T
Of the chestnut forests the rich and deep	T
With the burden and glory of flowers that they bear	U
Floating upborne on the blue summer air	U
And the light pouring thro' them in tender gleams	V
And the flashing forth of a thousand streams	V
Hold me not brethren I go I go	I
To the hills of my youth where the myrtles blow	I
To the depths of the woods where the shadows rest	A
Massy and still on the greensward's breast	A
To the rocks that resound with the water's play	B
I hear the sweet laugh of my fount give way	B
	-
Give way the booming surge the tempest's roar	D
The sea bird's wail shall vex my soul no more	D
