    Oh, father's gone to market-town, he was up before the day,
    And Jamie's after robins, and the man is making hay,
    And whistling down the hollow goes the boy that minds the mill,
    While mother from the kitchen door is calling with a will,
    "Polly!--Polly!--The cows are in the corn!
    Oh, where's Polly?"

I question not if thrushes sing,
If roses load the air;
Beyond my heart I need not read more

If roses load the air;
Beyond my heart I need not reach
When all is summer there.

O thou who passest through our valleys in
Thy strength, curb thy fierce steeds, allay the heat
That flames from their large nostrils! Thou, O Summer,
Oft pitchest here thy golden tent, and oft
Beneath our oaks hast slept, while we beheld
With joy thy ruddy limbs and flourishing hair.

Very hot and still the air was,
Very smooth the gliding river,
Motionless the sleeping shadows.
