Then bespoke her ciVilly.'
Dear miss, the way is long and steep,
There's many a mile before we sleep.
Come bind our burdens together, pray!
Well fare together along the way.
We put in sorrow and care and PAIN
We put in changes and loss and gain;
We put in tear and groan and sigh,
With song and laughter to light the
eye.
And aye we tried it, and aye it seemed
TO be full heavier than we dreamed,
Until 1 spoke, '1t might be we'll
To put in love''-then luck befell!
We seized the staff between us two;
We climbed the hills with courage
We raced along with laugh and
song,
And smiled at grief and frightened
wrong.
At eve we found a gentle host;
He gave us the best his house could
boast;
Then, side by side-forgot all wealth
We found good rest who Jared to-
gether.
