( A sample: "Ye winds, ye unseen currents of the air, softly ye played a few brief hours ago; Ye bore the murmuring bee, ye tossed the hair o'er maiden cheeks, that took a fresher glow; Ye rolled the round white cloud through depths of blue; Ye shook from shaded flowers the lingering dew; Before you the catalpa's blossoms flew, light blossoms, dropping on the grass like snow.") A must have for your collection!
