Blue-Eyed Ella

Oh blue-eyed Ella's face is fair, And beautiful her braided hair, As fair the feelings that do speak Upon her pure and placid cheek.

Oh! blue-eyed Ella's heart is kind With warm desires by Heav'n refin'd; Amid this world of crime and ill, She walks serene and sinless still.

Oh! blue-eyed Ella! keep for me, A thought from scorn and coldness free; I fain would ask, I fain would find A memory in so blest a mind.
