    Sweet letters of the angel tongue,
    I've loved ye long and well,
    And never have failed in your fragrance sweet
    To find some secret spell,--
    A charm that has bound me with witching power,
    For mine is the old belief,
    That midst your sweets and midst your bloom,
    There's a soul in every leaf!

They know the time to go!
The fairy clocks strike their inaudible hour
In field and woodland, and each punctual flower
Bows at the signal an obedient head
And hastens to bed.
