THE LITTLE MAID FROM FAIRYLAND.
How lair she was when first I saw, In radiance rare, before me stand .A girl that seemed without a flaw— > A little maid from Fairyland) I know the maids of East and West And ovei seas; among the band Within my heart I love the best The little maid from Fairyland. When I would kiss her ruby lips, Or press, perhaps, her snowy hand, She smi'.ci with fun and off she skips — The little maid from Fairyland. My heart from rue tlie maid beguiles; For who could see and yet withstand Her dainty charm and subtle wiles? The little maid from Fairyland. I think oi her, and often doubt If life is worth a grain of sand If I must always be without The little maid from Fairyland. Fairlie* August* 1&& 2&4
