Song

How sweet the woodbines fragrant flowers
Sweet is the hum drum of the bee
But sweeter far at evenings hours
The lovely smiles of Ellen Tree.

2

She stood against a tree of oak
He joined her by the woodland stile
'Twas just as though an Angel spoke
I heard her speak and saw her smile.

3

Oh Ellen Tree! dear Ellen Tree
The sun is setting 'yont the hill
Walk down the white thorn lane wi me
And let us live in Eden still.

4

White clover blooms and thistle flowers
Are lodgings for the sleepy bee
I'll worship in the evetide hours
My idol Angel Ellen Tree.

5

As none were lov'd Ill love her on
And more than happy will I be
I'll seize the moment e'er tis flown
To kiss the lips of Ellen Tree.
