Such venom vrom thy rocky spring;

Nor could it come in zummer blights,

Or reävèn storms o' winter nights,

Or in the cloud an' viry stroke

O' thunder that do split the woak.

O valley dear! I wish that I

'D a-liv'd in former times, to die

Wi' all the happy souls that trod

Thy turf in peäce, an' died to God;

Or gone wi' them that laugh'd an' zung
