On every road I wandered by,
Trod beside me, close and dear,
The

Whether in the woodland brown
I heard the beechnut rustle down,
And saw the purple crocus pale
Flower about the autumn dale;
Or littering far the fields of May
Lady-smocks a-bleaching lay,
And like a skylit water stood
The bluebells in the azured wood.

As pines that heifer, with such love as hers
May Daphnis pine, and I not care to heal.

When in the shade the fragrant heifer lows,

Behold a

With dreadful bellowing on the wretch he flies,

She, well as Jane, was laid within the ground;
And all were grieved poor Goody's end to see:
No better neighbour entered house than she,
