XXIV. SWEET MELMERBY.
Sweet Melmerby, thou lurkest well
Beneath the shadow of Cross Fell,
Where centuries since was lifted high
The Sign whose glory ne'er will die,
While mortals list to sorrow's knell.
Beneath the shadow of Cross Fell,
Where centuries since was lifted high
The Sign whose glory ne'er will die,
While mortals list to sorrow's knell.
Thy name is potent to dispel
The weariness of Care, and tell
Of all that cheers the heart and eye,
Sweet Melmerby!
The weariness of Care, and tell
Of all that cheers the heart and eye,
Sweet Melmerby!
Peace and repose within thee dwell,
Or wander down thy sylvan dell,
Lulled by the brook that singeth nigh;
Or wood-dove's sylvan melody,
Meet symbol of thy mystic spell,
Sweet Melmerby!
Or wander down thy sylvan dell,
Lulled by the brook that singeth nigh;
Or wood-dove's sylvan melody,
Meet symbol of thy mystic spell,
Sweet Melmerby!
