Maiden frank and free,
Leave the town with me;
Leave the city for the woodIa nds,
For the fields of emerald corn,
For the meads with running streamlets
Q Singing praises to the morn:
For the hills that bound the distance,
. Crowned with purple diadeEns;
For the sunshine on the dewdrops,
. Decking trees and plants with gems
Maiden sweet and fair,
Young and debonair:
Leave the city's smoke and hurry,
Never-eeasing toll and pain.
Noisy streets and noisome alleys
Love of gold and greed of gain.
Where the soul is crfbbed and cabined.
Where the heart has lack of room,
Where the ghosts of want and hunger
Stalk around in robes of gloom.
Maiden dear and free.
Nature here we see
Nature in her robes OF beauty.
Glowing in her summer dress,
Free from artificial letters.
Free from sorrow and distress.
Scothed by sound of running waters,
Charmed by humming of the bees.
Let us rest within the shadows
OF the grand primeval trees.
