elizabeth maconchy - have you seen but a bright lily grow? lyrics
Loading...
have you seen but a bright lily grow
before rude hands had touch’d it;
have you mark’d but the fall of the snow
before the soil hath smucht it
have you felt the wool of the beaver
or swansdown ever;
or have smelt of the bud of the bryer
or the nard in the fire;
or have tasted the bag of the bee;
o so white, o so soft, o so sweet, so sweet
so sweet is she!
o so white, o so soft, o so sweet
so sweet, so sweet is she!
