IN A BOWER.
A maiden sirs in her bower and sings, And your heart keeps time to the tune — In the garden walks the red rose springs, The month is June. The month is June, and full are the daysFair days of the summer fed — And softly the singer sings her lays ; Her lips are red. A face she has that'is pale as sloop. And hair like the midnight skies When the wings of tempest across them sweep; And strange, dark eyes. The song she singß is a siren' 3 song A tempting, dangerous run^ — - If you hark at all you will hear too long . That fatal tune. Louise Ciiand^ku Moulxon.
