Laud where South winds blow, Free from ice and suow; Land of showers and sunshine, Dear home of mine. Land of palmetto and pine, Of fruits and vine, Amidst which to spend happy hours With singing birds and flowers. Land of sunny skies, Where time never flies; But lingers by lake and stream, Bathed in suulight's golden gleam. To wander by lake and stream, On which to drift and dream, Gently flowing onward ever, Brooklet and mighty rivers. Land by ocean bound, Where health and wealth abound; A joyous summer land, Of sea grit, cliff and coral strand. i A broad, bounteous land, Or" hilldale and shining sand, j Country of mo^fc fertile soil, Teeming with multiform gift of God. : Land of Eternal youth, | Fiower-deck, hu l-kissed queen cf the South; Land of heaven blest.
