There's place in the town of Cornwall
That will ever be dear to me;
Astounding in recollections
Most sweet to my memory.
A place to which in my thoughts / turn,
And wish again might see;
For there was the home of my friend Jerome
And his beautiful family.
The meadow green. and the crystal sheen
OF the brook, as 1t rippled by;
The forest tall, and above them all
The blue of the azure sky;
The garden spot, and the strawberry plot,
And the naples before the door,
Such was the home of my friend Jerome
In the beautiful days of yore.
And there was one, twas the Oldest son,
lover of birds and flowers;
With diligent hand he titled the land,
And devoted the leisure hours
To the tender care of the plants so fair,
And the blossoms they richly bore;
In the pleasant home of my friend Jerome
Far off in the days of yore.
And there was girl with her teeth of pearl
And her merry and winning ways;
And she played and sang till the welkin
rang
In those peaceful and happy days.
She was young and fair, and without a care,
And the joy of the house was she;
In the happy home of my friend Jerome
With parents ana brothers three.
The other boys with but little noise
Are gathering golden store,
And carving their name on the rolls of fame
In musicIand classic lore;
And that girl 80 rare IN a city fair
Presides with a queenly grace;
In her beautiful home where my friend
Jerome
Finds ever welcome place.
