La Belle Julie |!

4 maiden fair is belle Julie
Fair as a maiden e'er can be;
And many hearts been forged to fec
The witching glance of belle Jalie
Her teeth are perfect, pearly, rare,
While gently waves her auburn hair;
And charms that one doth seldom see,
Are those possessed by belle Julie!
The dying roses Of last spring
Bcqueathed their tint to belle Julie
Her ruby lips doth sweetly sing
Melodsous notes for all but me;
Her tiny feet seem far too neat
To press the flower where turks the bee;
While on the wings of duty, feet,
Glides noiseless on, la belle Julie
Methinks she soon will welded be,
t. To one whose heart is fond and true;
One honorei to high degree
BY laurels worn but by the few,
But all what then 4? alas for me,
Who'st lived upon her sunny smiles;
The smiles of thee. la belle Julie
And caught at all thy winning wiles.
And so it's ever thus with me
Just when fond hope supremely dweils
Within the heart, and bids it be
Assured of all that proudly swellsR
The human soul, from doubt set free;
change comes DER the happy dream,
And mocks that hope, la belle Julie.
Yea mocks bright hone, la belle julie
