Overhead sang the steady trade wind, tempering the golden sunshine's heat. To eastward, under an incredibly blue sky, stretched the more incredibly multi-hued waters of Biscayne Bay, the snow-white wonder-city of Miami dreaming on its shores. Dividing the residence and business part of the city from the giant hotels, Flagler Avenue split the mass of buildings, from back-country to bay.
Yet will my perfume-laden soul bring back, As a sweet memory, to women's hearts Their days of maidenhood. And then they will be sorry that they came To sing me to my death; And all the butterflies will mourn for me. I bear away with me The sunshine's dear remembrance, and the low Soft murmurs of the spring.
"Kiss it p'ease, and make it well," begged Lucy tearfully as she climbed on his knee; while the kitten, after looking nervously around, sought refuge in Master Sunshine's coat-pocket. "Lucy was dwessin' kitty in dollie's clothes, and it went 'spitz! and runned up her shoulder," wept Lucy. Master Sunshine kissed the smarting neck, and cuddled the pet in his arms.
Master Sunshine's eyes were with his pet, you may be sure; and suddenly he stopped singing right in the middle of a verse, and gazed in wonder at the words which were carved low down at the base of the fountain, "I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink." "How could Mr. Patterson know the very text I liked best of all?" he said to himself. And he pondered over it all that day.
"Love's a divinity that speaks 'Awake Sweetheart! and straightway breaks A lordlier light than sunshine's glow, A sweeter life than mortals know. I bow me to his fond command, Take life's great glory from his hand; Crowned in one moment's sweet surprise, When Somebody and I changed eyes." Maggie had very little hope of meeting Allan, and yet he might have lingered.
He said, 'he was disgraced because his son was a thief," and Master Sunshine's tone grew very indignant. "You see, father, that if Tommy had only gone to some one like you at the first, there would have been no trouble at all." "And what do you think I would have advised in such a case?" asked Mr. Norton, much interested in the little tale. Master Sunshine looked at him wonderingly.
Every one knew that the Wanderer and his Wife were Master Sunshine's property. The Wanderer was a great white gander, with a long neck and a still longer tongue, if one could measure it by the clatter it made in the world. His Wife was a patient gray goose, who waddled after him unceasingly, and was always ready to add her shrill voice to his.
And then, somehow, all Master Sunshine's smiles vanished, and a sad, troubled expression fell on his face. A group of schoolboys were teasing Billy Butler, by calling him mocking names, and even by throwing balls of soft mud at him; while poor Billy was growing white with rage and was gesticulating wildly.
