Summer pleasures they are gone like to visions every one	A
And the cloudy days of autumn and of winter cometh on	B
I tried to call them back but unbidden they are gone	C
Far away from heart and eye and for ever far away	D
Dear heart and can it be that such raptures meet decay	D
I thought them all eternal when by Langley Bush I lay	D
I thought them joys eternal when I used to shout and play	D
On its bank at 'clink and bandy' 'chock' and 'taw' and	E
ducking stone	F
Where silence sitteth now on the wild heath as her own	F
Like a ruin of the past all alone	F
	-
When I used to lie and sing by old eastwells boiling spring	G
When I used to tie the willow boughs together for a 'swing'	G
And fish with crooked pins and thread and never catch a	H
thing	G
With heart just like a feather now as heavy as a stone	F
When beneath old lea close oak I the bottom branches broke	G
To make our harvest cart like so many working folk	G
And then to cut a straw at the brook to have a soak	G
O I never dreamed of parting or that trouble had a sting	G
Or that pleasures like a flock of birds would ever take to	I
wing	G
Leaving nothing but a little naked spring	G
	-
When jumping time away on old cross berry way	D
And eating awes like sugar plumbs ere they had lost the may	D
And skipping like a leveret before the peep of day	D
On the rolly polly up and downs of pleasant swordy well	J
When in round oaks narrow lane as the south got black again	K
We sought the hollow ash that was shelter from the rain	L
With our pockets full of peas we had stolen from the grain	L
How delicious was the dinner time on such a showry day	D
O words are poor receipts for what time hath stole away	D
The ancient pulpit trees and the play	D
	-
When for school oer 'little field' with its brook and wooden	A
brig	G
Where I swaggered like a man though I was not half so big	G
While I held my little plough though twas but a willow twig	G
And drove my team along made of nothing but a name	M
'Gee hep' and 'hoit' and 'woi' O I never call to mind	N
These pleasant names of places but I leave a sigh behind	N
While I see the little mouldywharps hang sweeing to the wind	N
On the only aged willow that in all the field remains	O
And nature hides her face where theyre sweeing in their	P
chains	O
And in a silent murmuring complains	O
	-
Here was commons for the hills where they seek for	Q
freedom still	R
Though every commons gone and though traps are set to kill	R
The little homeless miners O it turns my bosom chill	R
When I think of old 'sneap green' puddocks nook and hilly	S
snow	T
Where bramble bushes grew and the daisy gemmed in dew	I
And the hills of silken grass like to cushions to the view	I
When we threw the pissmire crumbs when we's nothing	G
else to do	I
All leveled like a desert by the never weary plough	U
All vanished like the sun where that cloud is passing now	U
All settled here for ever on its brow	U
	-
I never thought that joys would run away from boys	V
Or that boys would change their minds and forsake such	W
summer joys	V
But alack I never dreamed that the world had other toys	V
To petrify first feelings like the fable into stone	F
Till I found the pleasure past and a winter come at last	X
Then the fields were sudden bare and the sky got overcast	X
And boyhoods pleasing haunts like a blossom in the blast	X
Was shrivelled to a withered weed and trampled down and	E
done	A
Till vanished was the morning spring and set that summer	Y
sun	A
And winter fought her battle strife and won	A
	-
By Langley bush I roam but the bush hath left its hill	R
On cowper green I stray tis a desert strange and chill	R
And spreading lea close oak ere decay had penned its will	R
To the axe of the spoiler and self interest fell a prey	D
And cross berry way and old round oaks narrow lane	L
With its hollow trees like pulpits I shall never see again	K
Inclosure like a Buonaparte let not a thing remain	L
It levelled every bush and tree and levelled every hill	R
And hung the moles for traitors though the brook is	Z
running still	R
It runs a naked brook cold and chill	R
	-
O had I known as then joy had left the paths of men	K
I had watched her night and day besure and never slept agen	K
And when she turned to go O I'd caught her mantle then	K
And wooed her like a lover by my lonely side to stay	D
Aye knelt and worshipped on as love in beautys bower	Y
And clung upon her smiles as a bee upon her flower	Y
And gave her heart my poesys all cropt in a sunny hour	Y
As keepsakes and pledges to fade away	D
But love never heeded to treasure up the may	D
So it went the comon road with decay	D
