SONG
[Maiden unknown let me worship before thee]
1
Maiden unknown let me worship before thee
Thou queen of my heart
Let me bow and adore thee
Thou spirit of beauty
Thou vision of woman
Let it still be my duty
To worship thee blooming
2
For love is the sunshine
And woman's the flower
Cold cold is the moon shine
And dewy the hour
The moonlight has shame on't
We can't sit to rest
But the day has no blame on't
That Mary likes best
3
Come come in thy beauty
A woman in soul
A daughter in duty
Nor feelings controul
Leave nothing to hinder
The truth which I sing
Nor let surly winter
Take place of the spring
