Ye shadows that are cast | B |
By the haunted hours before | C |
Come back come back my childhood | D |
Thou art summon'd by a spell | E |
From the green leaves of the wild wood | D |
From beside the charmed well | E |
For Red Riding Hood the darling | F |
The flower of fairy lore | C |
The fields were cover'd over | A |
With colours as she went | G |
Daisy buttercup and clover | A |
Below her footsteps bent | G |
Summer shed its shining store | C |
She was happy as she press'd them | H |
Beneath her little feet | I |
She pluck'd them and caress'd them | H |
They were so very sweet | I |
They had never seem'd so sweet before | C |
To Red Riding Hood the darling | F |
The flower of fairy lore | C |
How the heart of childhood dances | J |
Upon a sunny day | K |
It has its own romances | L |
And a wide wide world have they | K |
A world where phantasie is king | F |
Made all of eager dreaming | F |
When once grown up and tall | M |
Now is the time for scheming | F |
Then we shall do them all | M |
Do such pleasant fancies spring | F |
For Red Riding Hood the darling | F |
The flower of fairy lore | C |
She seems like an ideal love | N |
The poetry of childhood shown | O |
And yet loved with a real love | N |
As if she were our own | O |
A younger sister for the heart | P |
Like the woodland pheasant | Q |
Her hair is brown and bright | R |
And her smile is pleasant | Q |
With its rosy light | R |
Never can the memory part | P |
With Red Riding Hood the darling | F |
The flower of fairy lore | C |
Did the painter dreaming | F |
In a morning hour | A |
Catch the fairy seeming | F |
Of this fairy flower | A |
Winning it with eager eyes | S |
From the old enchanted stories | T |
Lingering with a long delight | R |
On the unforgotten glories | T |
Of the infant sight | R |
Giving us a sweet surprise | S |
In Red Riding Hood the darling | F |
The flower of fairy lore | C |
Too long in the meadow staying | F |
Where the cowslip bends | U |
With the buttercups delaying | F |
As with early friends | U |
Did the little maiden stay | K |
Sorrowful the tale for us | V |
We too loiter mid life's flowers | W |
A little while so glorious | V |
So soon lost in darker hours | W |
All love lingering on their way | K |
Like Red Riding Hood the darling | F |
The flower of fairy lore | C |
