Accompaniment lending;

So sweetly wedded were the twain

The chords flowed mingled with the strain

Mellifluently blending

Now 'tis well known mankind's great foe

Oft lurks and wanders to and fro

In bailiwicks and shires;

Scattering broad-cast his mischief-seeds

Planting the germs of wicked deeds

Choking fair shoots with poisonous weeds
