Nor trees in Spring or fall;

An' tidden woody slopes an' nooks,

Do touch us mwost ov all;

An' tidden ivy that do cling

By housen big an' wold, O,

But this is, after all, the thing,—

The pleäce a teäle's a-twold o'.

At Burn, where mother's young friends know'd

The vu'st her maïden neäme,

The zunny knaps, the narrow road
