11I dream'd I lay where flow'rs were springing,I dream'd I lay where flow'rs were springing,
22Gaily in the sunny beam; Gaily in the sunny beam;
33Tho' to the wild birds singing,Listen'ning to the wild birds singing,
44By a falling crystal stream. By a falling crystal stream.
55Staight the sky grew black and daring,Straight the sky grew black and daring,
66While through the woods the whirlwinds rave, Thro' the woods the whirlwinds rave,
77The trees with aged arms were warring,The trees with aged arms were warring,
88Across the swelling drumlie wave. Across the swelling drumlie wave.

1010Such was my life's deceitful morning,Such was my life's deceitful morning,
1111Such the pleasures I enjoy'd; Such the pleasures I enjoy'd !
1212But long ere noon loud tempest storming,But long ere noon loud tempest storming,
1313All my flow'ry bliss destroy'd. All my flow'ry bliss destroy'd.
1414Tho' fickle fortune has deceiv'd me,Tho' fickle fortune has deceiv'd me,
1515She promised fair, and perform'd but ill, (She promised fair, and perform'd but ill),
1616Of many a joy and hope bereav'd me,Of monie a joy and hope bereav'd me,
1717I bear a heart shall support me still. I bear a heart shall support me still.
