Yet once this dimpled maiden, With bird-like sounds of glee And sweet proprietary airs, Would perch upon my knee. And oft we've romped together, When summer winds blew free.

HYGEIA 0DARKENED eyes above the grass, O have you seen the maiden pass? Her smile is like the morn, they say; Her forehead fairer than the day. With some who know it not she walks; By cottage gates she stands and talks; She flees the palace and the hall, Nor heeds the golden tongues that call.
