    Fair Dffodilis, we weep to see
    You haste away so soon
    As yet the early-rising Sun
    Has not attained his noon.
    Stay, Stay
    Until the hasting day
    Has run
    But to the even song;
    And, having prayed together
    we weill go with you along
    We have short time to stay, as you. We have as short a spring;
    As quick a growth to me decay
    As you, or any thing,
    We die,
    As your hours do, and dry
    Away
    like to the summers rain;
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
