 | Poems by James Hyslop |  |
IX.
To Lydia.
Bright was the summer scene,
Dark was the bower of green,
You in the woods had been
Gathering red flowers;
Soft eyes of darkening hue
Beam'd wanton ringlets through,
My heart at the witching view
Asked for yours.
Dark was the bower of green,
You in the woods had been
Gathering red flowers;
Soft eyes of darkening hue
Beam'd wanton ringlets through,
My heart at the witching view
Asked for yours.
While o'er us the summer flew,
Each time I met with you,
Early acquaintance grew
Warmer and fonder:
Soon did the eye display
What the young heart would say,
Thoughts that concealed lay,
Stolen looks made kinder.
Each time I met with you,
Early acquaintance grew
Warmer and fonder:
Soon did the eye display
What the young heart would say,
Thoughts that concealed lay,
Stolen looks made kinder.
