Five songs (1815-1820)

Summary

Five songs (1815-1820)

“ I'll give to thee my last good wish.
May thou as flowers in summer flourish,
Thy tender heart be always gay;
And may thou always constant prove
Unto the lad that's far away.
Farewell again, the ship doth wait,
She stately on the waves doth ride;
Oh! constant be, and I'll return
To make thee my sweet and charming bride.
This work was published before January 1, 1929, and is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago.

Five songs (1815-1820)

“ In a neat little cottage by a shady green tree.
No longer they wander in deserts alone,
In content they do live in their cottage at home.
The lark, thrush and linnet round their cottage do sing,
And both live as happy as a prince or a king.

“ O poor Robinson, &c.
And then his man, Friday, kept the hut neat & tiddy,
To be sure 'twas his business to do so;
And, friendly together, less like servant than brother,
Liv'd Friday and Robinson Crusoe.
