    Mourn, little harebells, o'er the lea;
    Ye stately foxgloves fair to see!
    Ye woodbines, hanging bonnilie
    In scented bowers!
    Ye roses on your thorny tree
    The first o' flow'rs.

When the earth teem'd around me with fairy delight,
And when daisies and buttercups gladden'd my sight,
Like treasures of silver and gold.

them.

Where fall the tears of love the rose appears,
And where the ground is bright with friendship's tears,
Forget-me-not, and violets, heavenly blue,
Spring glittering with the cheerful drops like dew.

Like the divining rods of Magi old,
Where precious wealth lies buried, not of gold,
But love--strong love, that never can decay!
