New York: STEINWAY HALL, 113 West 571 St. Lonpon, ENG: Boosey & Co,Lro, 205 Recent S1.W.l. The Fairies’ Dance Once in the morning when the breeze The lilies white beside the walk Set all the leaves astir, Like ladies fair and tall And musi¢ floated from the trees Together joined, in whispered talk, As from a dulcimer, About a fairies’ ball. I saw the roses, one by one, The slender grasses waved along Bow gracefully, as though The garden path, and I A fairy dance were just begun Could almost hear the fairies’ song Upon the ground below. ‘When blew the light wind by. I waited there till noon to hear The elfin music sweet, I saw the servant bees appear In golden jackets neat; And though I wished just once to see ‘The happy little elves, They were so much afraid of me ‘They never showed themselves.
