ALL'S WELL THAT ENDETH WELL



The robins and the blue-birds sing
In tones so sweet and clear;
"Cheer up dear, Annie dear, 'tis spring
And Summer time is near."

The crocus soon will wake from sleep
And lift its dainty head;
The trailing arbutus will peep
Out from its leafy bed.

Dame Nature soon will deck the hills
And vales in verdant clothes;
While 'neath the oak the brooklet trills
Where blooms the blushing rose.

Fair daisy sweet and buttercup
The breeze will softly kiss;
Then do not pine, dear friend, cheer up
And share with them their bliss.

Let not your heart be troubled dear,
The birds this message tell,—
Ye faint at heart, be of good cheer,
"All's well that endeth well."
