The maiden tossed m fever's dreams , The homeless girl and boy , And fisher , prize alike my beams , Breathing of love and joy ; Of sunny hopes and sunshine hours , Of mazy streams and fragrant bowers .

My second loves earth ' s mossy breast , And hails the genial dew , Smiling in Araby the Blest , With roseate cups , and blue ; The flower that Cashmere's vale supplies , And Alpine steeps that kiss the skies .

My whole the Sunflower may be seen In every land of toil , And yet a native'tis , I ween , Of brave Columbia ' s soil , For ever growing as it grew , Eound rocky heights of rich Peru . E . W . J .

ANOTHER . Upon the sea how anxiously They gaze upon the skies , After their net is cast and set , To watch the " Sun" arise / And anxious grew that maiden too , Rack'd on a bed of pain , The livelong night , to see the light , The orb of day again .

Poor houseless boy , awake with joy , And ye who vigils keep , The sun's bright ray proclaims 'tis day , Over the earth and deep . At early hour the opening flower Bedecks the meads around , Well prized by those who roam 'midst snows , Or deserts' parched ground .

In rich Peru , with golden hue , The " Sunflower ' s" seen alway , * And decks the brows and breasts of those Who adore the god of daj . W . H .
