Show THE MODERN MAIDEN When fair Aurora calls the Dawn The golden Day to waken And robins on the verdant lawn The early worms do rake In And Sol begins to light the skies And tint the heaving bllloTT My lady in her chamber lies Asleep upon her pillow Ob beauteous sight A check so fair Oa snowy arms reposing And lips just parted rosebuds rare Two rows of pearls disclosing Tho light Into her chamber streams Its hricabrac adorning And she awakens from her dreams To greet the golden morning She springs from bed how fair Is she All In her maiden glory Like enus rising from the sea As told In classic tory Sho opens her door the charming sprite And calls her brother Freddy To tell her ma the fire to light And get the breakfast readyt When she Is dressed she goes down stairs And gives the cook some orders Then to the dining room repairs To mash the young men boarders The breakfast over up she springs And tells her ma and Hannah To wash the dishes while she sings And bangs the grand pianoBoston Boston Courier |
