  1. (continued from previous page)
    I hope once more to see,
    The verdant shades and flowery vales,
    Round lovely Moy-nal-ty.
    The Hawthorn time and Woodbine,
    All natures are in bloom,
    The Blackbird, thrush, and Linnet
    Their notes do sweetly tune,
    The buck and doe are sporting,
    But it's not so with me
    For the day I spent I'll never forget,
    Round lovely Moy-nal-ty.
