And l sent the poor young man away;

He did not give me any sighs,
But he left his picture in my eyes;
And in my eyes it has always been;
I have NO heart to keep it in
Beside the lane with hedges sweet.
Where VIC parted never more to meet,
He pulled flower of loves own hue,
And where it had been came out two!
And in the grass, where he stood for years
The dews OF the morning stood like tears.
Still smiles the house where I was born
Among its fields of wheat and corn,
Wheat and corn that stranger bind -

His dream and knows his dream untrue.

She went and let him in herself.

And sang out clear and glad.
