HOW DO I THINK OF THEE?
As the thirsty pilgrim thinks of the sparkling fountain;
As the tempest-tossed mariner thinks of some fixed star;
As the gardener thinks of some pleasant flower;
As the pure white lily thinks of the diamond dew;
As the weary wanderer in a foreign land thinks of his far-off home.
