But wake and doff that frown,
Nor man's, nor God's great laws,
Forbid thee to look down:
My lady, lady, wake,
Wake, oh! wake.
THE OLD MILL WHEEL.
The old mill-wheel, it turns, it turns
Throughout the livelong day,
But wake and doff that frown,
Nor man's, nor God's great laws,
Forbid thee to look down:
My lady, lady, wake,
Wake, oh! wake.
The old mill-wheel, it turns, it turns
Throughout the livelong day,
