Shall I there be perchance again,
Where by the side of the fountain,
I walked up the old country road?
Shall those days of childhood return
When I thought beyond the far turn
There lay the sweet fairies’ abode?
Shall I ever be free from throes
Of old age and my mental woes
To go back to the ancient mode?
