In darkness drough the wall-bound drong,

An' never bring the goo-coo's zong,

Nor sweets o' blossoms in the hedge,

Or bendèn rush, or sheenèn zedge,

Or sounds o' flowèn water.

The aïr that I've a-breath'd did sheäke

The draps o' raïn upon the breäke,

An' bear aloft the swingèn lark,

An' huffle roun' the elem's bark,

In boughy grove, an' woody park,
