In and out the leafy shade

Of the peaceful glen and glade,

Where the brook goes rippling by,

Through the cowslip meadow nigh;

When the soft and odorous breeze

Whispers gently 'mongst the trees,

Lovingly, I hear them woo—

"Coo-goo-roo-o-o, Coo-goo-roo-o-o."

Bows and bridles proudly he,

Coyly shy and modest she;
