Dost thou idly ask to hear 
At what gentle seasons 
Nymphs relent when lovers near 
Press the t#nderest reasons ? 
Ah, they give their faith too oft 
To the careless vrootr— 
Maidens’ hearts are always soft; 
Would that men’s were truer! 
Woo the fair one, when around 
Early birds are singiag; 
When o’er the fragrant ground 
Early herbs are springing; 
When the brook-side, bank and grove, „ 
All with blossoms laden, 
Shine with beauty, breathe of love— 
Woo the timid maiden. 
Woo her when, with rosy blush, 
Summer ere is sinking ; 
When, on rills that softly gush, 
Stars are softly winking; 
When, thro’ boughs that knit the bower, - 
Moonlight gleams are stealing; 
Woo her till the gentle hour 
Wake a gentler feeling. 
Woe her, when autumnal dyes 
Tinge the woody mountain, 
■When the dreoping foliage lie* 
In the weedy fountain;

Warn her, ere her bloora is past, 
To secure her lover.

While the wintry tempest round 
Sweeps the landscape hoary,
