THE GARDNER WT HIS
h
When rofy May comes in wi’ flowers.
To deck her gay green fpreading bowers.
Then bufy, bufy are his hours,
The gard’ner wi’ his paidle.
The chryftal waters gently fa’.
The merry birds are lovers a’.
The fcented breezes round him blaw.
The gard’ner wi’ his paidle.
When purple morning harts the hare.
To heal upon her early fare :
Then thro’ the dews he maun repair,
The gard’ner wi’ his paidle.
When day, expiring in the weft.
The curtain draws o’ nature’s reft.
He flees to her arms he loves the beft.
The gard’ner wi’ his paidle.
