O lady fair and sweet / Arise and let us go / Where comes not rain or snow, / Excess of cold or heat, / To find a still retreat / By willowy valleys low / Where silent rivers flow.
There let us turn our feet / O lady fair and sweet --
Far from the noisy street, / The doleful city row, / Far from the grimy street, / Where in the evening glow / The summer swallows meet, / The quiet mowers mow.
Arise and let us go, / O lady fair and sweet, / For here the loud winds blow, / Here drifts the blinding sleet.
