Ah, there I sweetness In th quiet

Yea, now I know the depth of human

And know that I myself bad never

All women beautiful, all brother

If Ilf 1 aver like to heaven, mine la,
Since I have yon.
I never knew but thould the aklet be

Th woodland dark, the thore a

BtttI would my heart be filled with

At this new world that yoa reveal

For, ahould the world, the world of

The skies be lesoen now o fairly

No ttorm could frighten me, no hart
