Many maidens fair I've known,
Girls with Soft and potent eyes,
That would melt a heart of stone
Every maid a lovely frise. '"'
I have worshipped at their feet,
i Yiekleil to their charing; and yet
Is the best of them as sweet
As the girl I've never met?
They have witching little eyes,
She enraptures when she smiles;
i. They enchant, amuse, amaze,
She enslaves me with her wiles.
;That they're charming I agrte; "
They are exquisite; and yet, .
None of them entices me
Like the girl I've never met.
She has all their winning grace,
All their iril and beaut? rare. -
H lashing eyes, a perlect face,
Low sweet forehead, rippling hair,
Fancy makes her all my own,
I can see her now; and yet
- Though full many maids I've known,
She's the girl I've never met.
Shall I meet her? who can tell?
Life is short, ibe world is wide,
While I wait I know it well,
She may be another's bride.
Fate has kept us two aparr,
We may never meet; and yet,
Here's a toast: "I pledge ray heart"
To the girl I've never met.
