One sunny morn of May	A
When dressed in flowery green	B
The dewy landscape charmed	C
With Nature's fairest scene	B
In thoughtful mood	D
I slowly strayed	E
O'er hill and dale	F
Through bush and glade	E
	-
Throughout the cloudless sky	G
Of light unsullied blue	H
The larks their matins raised	I
Whilst on my dizzy view	H
Like dusky motes	J
They winged their way	A
Till vanished in	K
The blaze of day	A
	-
The linnets sweetly sang	L
On every fragrant thorn	M
Whilst from the tangled wood	N
The blackbirds hailed the morn	M
And through the dew	H
Ran here and there	O
But half afraid	E
The startled hare	O
	-
The balmy breeze just kissed	P
The countless dewy gems	Q
Which decked the yielding blade	E
Or gilt the sturdy stems	Q
And gently o'er	R
The charmed sight	S
A deluge shed	T
Of trembling light	S
	-
A sympathetic glow	U
Ran through my melting soul	V
And calm and sweet delight	S
O'er all my senses stole	V
And through my heart	W
A grateful flood	X
Of joy rolled on	Y
To Nature's God	Z
	-
Time flew unheeded by	G
Till wearied and oppressed	A2
Upon a flowery bank	B2
I laid me down to rest	A2
Beneath my feet	C2
A purling stream	D2
Ran glittering in	K
The noontide beam	D2
	-
I turned me round to view	H
The lovely rural scene	B
And just at hand I spied	E2
A cottage on the green	B
The street was clean	B
The walls were white	S
The thatch was neat	C2
The window bright	S
	-
Bold chanticleer arrayed	E
In velvet plumage gay	A
With many an amorous dame	F2
Fierce strutted o'er the way	A
And motley ducks	G2
Were waddling seen	B
And drake with neck	H2
Of glossy green	B
	-
The latch I gently raised	I
And oped the humble door	I2
An oaken stool was placed	J2
On the neat sanded floor	I2
An aged man	K2
Said with a smile	L2
You're welcome sir	R
Come rest a while	L2
	-
His coarse attire was clean	B
His manner rude yet kind	M2
His air his words and looks	N2
Showed a contented mind	M2
Though mean and poor	O2
Thrice happy he	P2
As by our tale	F
You soon shall see	P2
	-
But don't expect to hear	Q2
Of deeds of martial fame	F2
Or that our peasant mean	B
Was born of rank or name	F2
And soon will strut	R2
As in romance	S2
A knight and all	T2
In armour glance	S2
	-
I sing of real life	U2
All else is empty show	U
To those who read a source	V2
Of much unreal woe	U
Pollution too	H
Through novel veins	W2
Oft fills the mind	M2
With guilty stains	W2
	-
Our peasant long was bred	T
Affliction's meagre child	X2
Yet gratefully resigned	M2
Loud hymning praises smiled	X2
And like a tower	R
He stood unmoved	Y2
Supported by	G
The God he loved	Z2
	-
His loving wife long since	A3
Was numbered with the dead	T
His son a martial youth	B3
Had for his country bled	T
And now remained	C3
One daughter fair	O
And only she	P2
To soothe his care	O
	-
The aged man with tears	D3
Spoke of the lovely maid	E
How earnestly she strove	E3
To lend her father aid	E
And as he ran	K2
Her praises o'er	R
She gently oped	E
The cottage door	I2
	-
With vegetable store	I2
The table soon she spread	E
And pressed me to partake	F3
Whilst blushes rosy red	E
Suffused her face	G3
The old man smiled	E
Well pleased to see	P2
His darling child	E
	-
With venerable air	O
He then looked up to God	E
A blessing craved on all	T2
And on our daily food	E
Then kindly begged	E
I would excuse	H3
Their humble fair	O
And not refuse	I3
	-
The tablecloth though coarse	V2
Was of a snowy white	E
The vessels spoons and knives	J3
Were clean and dazzling bright	E
So down we sat	E
Devoid of care	O
Nor envied kings	K3
Their dainty fare	O
	-
When nature was refreshed	E
And we familiar grown	L3
The good old man exclaimed	E
Around Jehovah's throne	L3
Come let us all	T2
Our voices raise	M3
And sing our great	E
Redeemer's praise	M3
	-
Their artless notes were sweet	E
Grace ran through every line	N3
Their breasts with rapture swelled	E
Their looks were all divine	N3
Delight o'er all	T2
My senses stole	V
And heaven's pure joy	O3
O'erwhelmed my soul	V
	-
When we had praised our God	E
And knelt around His throne	L3
The aged man began	K2
In deep and zealous tone	L3
With hands upraised	E
And heavenward eye	G
And prayed loud	E
And fervently	P2
	-
He prayed that for His sake	F3
Whose guiltless blood was shed	E
For guilty ruined man	K2
We might that day be fed	E
With that pure bread	E
Which cheers the soul	V
And living stream	D2
Where pleasures roll	V
	-
He prayed long for all	T2
And for his daughter dear	P3
That she preserved from ill	Q3
Might lead for many a year	P3
A spotless life	U2
When he's no more	I2
Then follow him	R3
To Canaan's shore	I2
	-
His faltering voice then fell	S3
His tears were dropping fast	E
And muttering praise to God	E
For all His mercies past	E
He closed his prayer	O
Midst heavenly joys	T3
And tasted bliss	U3
Which never cloys	U3
	-
In sweet discourse we spent	E
The fast declining day	E
We spoke of Jesus' love	V3
And of that narrow way	E
Which leads through care	O
And toil below	U
To streams where joys	U3
Eternal flow	U
	-
The wondrous plan of Grace	U3
Adoring we surveyed	E
The birth of heavenly skill	Q3
In Love Eternal laid	E
Too deep for clear	P3
Angelic ken	W3
And far beyond	E
Dim sighted men	W3
	-
To tell you all that passed	E
Would far exceed my power	R
Suffice it then to say	E
Joy winged the passing hour	R
Till ere we knew	H
The setting day	E
Had clad the world	E
In silver grey	E
	-
I kindly took my leave	X3
And blessed the happy lot	E
Of those I left behind	E
Lodged in their humble cot	E
And pitied some	Y3
In palace walls	U3
Where pride torments	U3
And pleasure palls	U3
	-
The silver moon now shed	E
A flood of trembling light	E
On tower and tree and stream	D2
The twinkling stars shone bright	E
Nor misty stain	Z3
Nor cloud was seen	B
O'er all the deep	A4
Celestial green	B
	-
Mild was the lovely night	E
Nor stirred a whispering breeze	U3
Smooth was the glassy lake	F3
And still the leafy trees	U3
No sound in air	O
Was heard afloat	E
Save Philomel's	U3
Sweet warbling note	E
	-
My thoughts were on the wing	B4
And back my fancy fled	E
To where contentment dwelt	E
In the neat humble shed	E
To shining courts	U3
From thence it ran	K2
Where restless pride	E
Oppresses man	K2
	-
In fame some search for bliss	U3
Some seek content in gain	Z3
In search of happiness	U3
Some give the slackened rein	Z3
To passions fierce	U3
And down the stream	D2
Through giddy life	U2
Of pleasures dream	D2
	-
These all mistake the way	E
As many more have done	C4
The narrow path of bliss	U3
Through God's Eternal Son	C4
Directly tends	U3
And only he	P2
Who treads this path	D4
Can happy be	P2
	-
Who anchors all above	V3
Has still a happy lot	E
Though doomed for life to dwell	S3
E'en in a humble cot	E
And when he lays	U3
This covering down	E4
He'll wear a bright	E
Immortal crown	E4
