DARTSIDE. 1849.

I CANNOT tell what you say, green leaves,I cannot tell what you say: But I know that there is a spirit in you, And a word in you this day.
I cannot tell what you say, rosy rocks,I cannot tell what you say: But I know that there is a spirit in you,And a word in you this day.
I cannot tell what you say, brown streams,I cannot tell what you say: But I know that in you too a spirit doth live,And a word doth speak this day.
