[bull. 45 



This song forms an example of the strange personation which char- 

 acterizes many of the dream songs. In this the singer contemplates 

 the storm mystery of the sky until he feels himself a part of it and 

 sings its song. 



Analysis. — This song is divided into two parts. The first contains 

 only vowel syllables and consists of nine measures, in which the 

 rhythmic unit occurs twice. This unit is comprised in the first three 

 measures. The second part of the song contains the words. This 

 part of the song constitutes a rhythmic unit in itself. Attention is 

 directed to the harmonic character of the song, although the melody 

 moves with great freedom.
