¶Liedtext

Fare thee well, thou native vale, Where my happier hours were spent; Farewell dance and song and tale, Farewell jest and merriment. Hours of joy, but ah, how few Infant scenes too quickly fled; Vanish'd as the morning dew From the many-spangl'd mead. Yet, to trace thy varied charms, Soft Idea lingers still; Still my breast in prospect warms Wavy pine or rattling rill. Still retards the parting sigh, Anxious trembling on my tongue; Still recalling infancy, Tale and jest and dance and song.
