know o maid so very sweet
Who dgyells not far from me.
And no one else In all the street
Has such q charm as she.
Her form IS something that's divine;
Her cheeks arc rosy rcd;
Her eyes, like depths of mellow wine,
Arc gems set in her head.
She has a gentle, dreamy smile
That makes me softly sigh.
She's always in the latest style
WheneverI pass by.
And yet cannot hope TO win
This maid; so must stop.
For she IS but the form within

And bright with these fair stars OF earth
Are hill and dale and spreading field.

Forgets her errsnds, while her eyes

The welcome springtime sunshine liesl
Yet not too long gaze thou, oh, maid,
In raptures on such joyous scenes,
But get that rusty knife TO work
And dig for Us the dinner green's.
