Gentle Stream, whose wild meanders

Cheer the birds and feed the flowers,

While by thee Amelia wanders,

Wilt thou soothe her pensive hours?

If the world were at my bidding,

Music should her steps attend,

And where’er her feet were treading,

Flowers should bloom, and sweets ascend.

SONG.
TO A LADY GOING TO HER FAMILY IN IRELAND.
