When Sir Joseph Porter made his first

senses, and then muttered to himself
sotto voce, "I'm blest if that isn't old
Murray.

A sylvan path, a forest aisle.
Romantic, dim retreat,
Where love may stroll quiet mile
And hear no passing feet.
A day in May, when sunbeams fall
Asleep upon the ground,
When soothing minstrels family call
To dreams Of bliss they've found.
A weary heart bowed down with care,
Indifferent to woe,
Seeking breath Of solace where
The sweet crabapples grow.
But not the breeze, the bloom. the birds.
Conjured his soul that day,
A gentle maid Of simple words
His sorrow charmed away.
