Kennst Du den Berg und seinen Wolkcnsteg? . . . 

 Kennst Du ihn wohl? 



Daliin ! Daliin ! 

 Geht unser Weg. 



Gov:niK.—JIir/7ion . 



Or sometimes from your cool bournes, where it hid, 

 A butterfly soars fluttering, breeze-assailed. 



Gay as those flowery gondolas that slid 

 Through sculptured Venice in old days, and trailed 

 Brocades and velvets where they sailed !
