Faded Spray Of Mignonette

Listen in the reader

Faded spray of mignonette, Can you ever more forget How you lay that summer night, In the new moon's silvery light, Dreaming sweet in tranquil rest On my true-love's snowy breast?

Since her rosy finger-tips Bore you to her fragrant lips, Blessed you with a shadowy kiss, Nestled you again in bliss, (Envied of the Gods above) All is faded save my love.
