The blessed Ercus led me when a boy,
And how, within thine arms and at thine knee,
I learned the love, thatdeath cannot destroy ;
And how I parted hence with bitter tears,
Andfelt, whenturningfromthy door.
And how, within thine arms and at thine knee,
I learned the love, thatdeath cannot destroy ;
And how I parted hence with bitter tears,
Andfelt, whenturningfromthy door.
