Ov elems on the flow'ry banks;

How cool's the sheäde, or warm's the lewth,

Bezide a zummer hedge in blooth.

But oh! below woone hedge's zide

Our jaÿ do come a-most to pride;

Out where the high-stemm'd trees do stand,

In row bezide our own free land,

An' where the wide-leav'd clote mid zwim

'Ithin our water's rushy rim:

An' raïn do vall, an' zuns do burn,
