## The words

A ray from out the ruby, It sparkles and is  
fled, A jet of fiery purple! And lo!  
the grape is sped. But through the dusky  
lashes, That fringe your orbs divine,  
The dawning lovelight flashes,  
And thrills this heart of mine,__ ’Tis dawning  
love that flashes, And thrills this heart of  
mine  
Since first you looked up– on me,  
And looked my heart a– way, My thoughts have  
never rested For longing, night and day.  
As homing swallows flutter O’er woodland,  
lake andlea, They soar and fly for ever,  
To thee, alone to thee,–– They soar and fly for  
ever, To thee, alone to thee, And though the  
mountains were golden, And though the rivers  
ran wine, I’d pass them all by, my beloved,  
I’d pass them to make thee mine!
