Her seymar[20] was the lily flower,

And her cheek the moss-rose in the shower;

And her voice like the distant melody

That floats along the twilight sea.

But she loved to raike[21] the lanely glen,

And keepit away frae the haunts of men;

Her holy hymns unheard to sing,

To suck the flowers, and drink the spring.

But wherever her peaceful form appear’d,

The wild beasts of the hill were cheer’d;
