Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1861-10-01

How long ago did the vlolets blow
Twas in the springtime early
And now the brown-cheeked reaper lads
Are singing among the barley.
There's a mist upon the purple hills,
And down lhe maadjwy reaehgs
The sunshine rains like summer rain
All over the yellow besches
But long ago when the violstS blOomsd,
satby my rose-lipped darling,
And braided hvEenths In her hair
TIL starlighs were a.falling
Warm May winds came dancing down
Out Of the golden morning,
Laughing as they kissed her cheek,
To see such sweet adOrniug
But when the barley fields were brown,
Where the roapersnow are reapIng,
was alone in the world and she,
My darling-fella sleeping
The winds have flown, and the rose Tipped
girl
And l am sad and sober,
Then, eh then-'twas ioWery May,
But now, tits drear October.
