I have to help Harry along the road,

That is so much harder for him than me.

Living alone in the depths of a wood,

Life catches meanings, and things become clear;

But Harry is growing so very good,

That it almost gives me a sort of fear.

'O little May-blossom!' he softly cries,

As together we tread the well-worn way,

'There is nothing sweeter beneath the skies,

Than a little shining blossom of May!
