There Is Al garden lii my soul,
A garden where ! lnaynot go:
Where all the day the sun shines fair
And only softcst Eephyrs blow
& Tho winding pathways cross the turf,
5rhro. sunshine to tho restful shade,
Under the low archcd Chestnut trees
aE And eimt that throhg tho quiet glade.
Us Out In the noisy street ! fare,
Witi, MI It's dust and hdeons cries,
Lonely. md shaving Mt my task,
8l AS long as daylight fills the skies.
But sometimes for an hour 1 steal
# And by the gate, beneath the stars,
lear and long and look within,
a;s5 And cool my forehead oil the bars.
