Where woonce the meshy wall did gird

Your flow'ry geärden, an' the bird

Did zing in zummer wind that stirr'd

The spreädèn linden on the lawn.

An' now ov all the trees wi' sheädes

A-wheelèn round in Blackmwore gleädes,

There's noo tall poplar by the brook,

Nor elem that do rock the rook,

Nor ash upon the shelvèn ledge,

Nor low-bough'd woak bezide the hedge,
