Ihe tangled roses twist and bloom
Against the garden wall.
So thick they leave but scanty room
For the ripened peach to fall.
Among the stately hollyhocks
The wild bee drones and veers.
And here at eve he always walks,
The Cure OF st. Cyr's.
TIL village knows the kindly face.
The old hats broken rim;
The veriest baby in the place
Filings out a smile to him..
The gentle hand. the silvered hair.
The look that chides or cheers;
He always has a laugh to spare,
The Cure OF ST. Cyrs.
His house is small and dismal. yet.
His treasures are not few:
An old flute and a silhouette.
A cherished book or two.
Still, rumor says that long ago.
In dim. forgotten years,
His life had other gifts TO show.
The Cure Of st. Cyr's.
He was a soldier of the king
A courtier learned in bliss;
No man can say what made him fling
The old life by for this,
He bears, instead of love and mirth,
The parish hopes and fears
The little burdens of the earth
Tho Cure OF St. Cyr's.
The sunshine foods his garden ways.
The rose mods TO the wind.
who knows II he regrets the days
He left so long behind?
Perhaps the silhouette could tell
Whose face has felt his tears
Methinks she knows them over-weil.
Oh. Cure Of ST. Cyr.
