THE CHILD'S GREÄVE.

Avore the time when zuns went down

On zummer's green a-turn'd to brown,

When sheädes o' swaÿèn wheat-eärs vell

Upon the scarlet pimpernel;

The while you still mid goo, an' vind

'Ithin the geärden's mossy wall,

Sweet blossoms, low or risèn tall,

To meäke a tutty to your mind,

In churchyard heav'd, wi' grassy breast,
