SONGS OF THE SEA CHILDREN: 93 by BLISS CARMAN

First Line: SHE SAID, 'IN ALL THE PURPLE HILLS'
Last Line: "THAT'S HALF SO GLAD AS I!"
Subject(s): HAPPINESS;

She said, "In all the purple hills,
Where dance the lilies blue,
Where all day long the springing larks
Make fairy-tales come true,
"Where you can lie for hours and watch
The unfathomable sky,
There's not a breath of all the June
That's half so glad as I!"
