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.
