One golden summer day	A
Along the forest way	A
Young Colin passed with blithesome steps alert	B
	-
His locks with careless grace	C
Rimmed round his handsome face	C
And drifted outward on the airy surge	D
	-
So blithe of heart was he	E
He hummed a melody	E
And all the birds were hushed to hear him sing	F
	-
Across his shoulders flung	G
His bow and baldric hung	G
So in true huntsman's guise he threads the wood	H
	-
The sun mounts up the sky	I
The air moves sluggishly	E
And reeks with summer heat in every pore	J
	-
His limbs begin to tire	K
Slumbers his youthful fire	K
He sinks upon a violet bed to rest	L
	-
The soft winds go and come	M
With low and drowsy hum	M
And ope for him the ivory gate of dreams	N
	-
Beneath the forest shade	O
There trips a woodland maid	O
And marks with startled eye the sleeping youth	P
	-
At first she thought to fly	I
Then timid drawing nigh	I
She gazed in wonder on his fair young face	C
	-
When swiftly stooping down	Q
Upon his locks so brown	Q
She lightly pressed her lips and blushing fled	R
	-
When Colin woke from sleep	S
From slumbers calm and deep	S
He felt he knew not how his heart had flown	T
	-
And so with anxious care	U
He wandered here and there	U
But could not find his lost heart anywhere	U
	-
Then he with air distraught	V
And brow of anxious thought	V
Went out into the world beyond the wood	H
	-
Of each that passed him by	I
He queried anxiously	E
I prithee hast thou seen a heart astray	A
	-
Some stared and hurried on	W
While others said in scorn	X
Your heart has gone in search of your lost wits	Y
	-
The day is wearing fast	Z
Young Colin comes at last	Z
To where a cottage stood embowered in trees	A2
	-
He looks within and there	U
He sees a maiden fair	U
Who sings low songs the while she plies her wheel	B2
	-
I prithee maiden bright	C2
She turns as quick as light	C2
And straight a warm flush crimsons all her face	C
	-
She much abashed looks down	Q
For on his locks so brown	Q
She seems to see the marks her lips have made	O
	-
	-
Whereby she stands confest	O
What need to tell the rest	O
He said I think fair maid you have my heart	O
	-
Nay do not give it back	D2
I shall not feel the lack	D2
If thou wilt give to me thine own therefor	U
