Gave up her glorious memories | B |
Wild scent of wood anemone | C |
The sapphire blue of April skies | D |

Then softly through the dusky room | J |
They strayed fair ghosts of other days | H |
With breath like early cherry bloom | J |
With tender eyes and gentle ways | H |

They glimmered on the sombre walls | H |
They danced upon the oaken floor | K |
Till through the loudly silent halls | H |
Joy reigned majestical once more | K |

One rapturous Spirit radiant stood | M |
'Twas you at last Yes YOU my dear | L |
We two were back in Gatcombe Wood | M |
