the singing bird will come.

mountains with the green majesty of forests.

and throw my handful of seed on high.

SHADES OF GREEN

yet the grass is green when the flower fades away.

Green grow the rashes, O;
Green grow the rashes, O;
The sweetest hours that e'er I spend,
Are spent amang the lasses, O.

get to heaven in a green coat,
will not find his way thither
the sooner in a gray one.

is in the eyes of others
only a green thing which
stands in the way.

Love, meet me in the green glen,
Beside the tall elm-tree,
Where the sweetbriar smells so sweet agen;
There come with me.
Meet me in the green glen.

and that from which its loveliness arises.
