THE WELLS O' WEARY.

THE WELLS O' WEARY.Downin the valley lone,Far in the wild wood,Bubble forth springs, each oneWeeping like childhood;Bright on their rushy banks,Like joys among sadness,Little flowers bloom in ranks—Glimpses of gladness.Sweet 'tis to wander forth,Like pilgrims at even;Lifting our souls from earthTo fix them on Heaven;Then in our transport deep,This world forsaking:Sleeping as Angels sleep,Mortals awaking!

Downin the valley lone,

Far in the wild wood,

Bubble forth springs, each one

Weeping like childhood;

Bright on their rushy banks,

Like joys among sadness,

Little flowers bloom in ranks—

Glimpses of gladness.

Sweet 'tis to wander forth,Like pilgrims at even;Lifting our souls from earthTo fix them on Heaven;Then in our transport deep,This world forsaking:Sleeping as Angels sleep,Mortals awaking!

Sweet 'tis to wander forth,

Like pilgrims at even;

Lifting our souls from earth

To fix them on Heaven;

Then in our transport deep,

This world forsaking:

Sleeping as Angels sleep,

Mortals awaking!
