Hemlocks And Primroses

Thinking of you while out for a ramble Down by a cold frosty stream Set down on a bed of hemlocks and primroses Gentry I fell into a dream I dreamed I saw a pretty fair maiden Such beauty I'd never saw before Her dress was bound round with hemlocks and primroses So gree was the mantel she wore He hair was of a dark brown color Her teeth was as ivory so white Her eyes they shined like sparking diamonds Of stars than shine on a cold frosty night I drew her near then I awakened With two empty arms and you on my mind Heaven seemed so near while I was dreaming It hurts to know you left me behind
