Excerpt from Wayside Songs: With Later Lyrics The lights and shades went racing Across the fields of rye, As the hopes and fears that tremble When Love himself is nigh. I call to mind the fancies, So idle, yet so dear, That fluttered round my heart, sweet, When you yourself drew near. A sunbeam on the meadows, A lily on the, stream, A sweet reality - and yet, The image of a dream. Time has not changed the fancies Of that remembered hour Whose bud of bliss has blossomed To true and perfect flower. And fortune grant the way, love, Our happy footsteps tend, Be sunny as the past, love, And sunny to the end.
