The night was dark
For the moon was young
And the stars were asleep and rare.
Tge clouds were thick yet youth went out to see his maiden fair

"Dear One,"He pleaded aa he k elt before her feet in tears "My love is true why have you kept me waiting all these years" The maiden looked at him unmoved it semmed and Whisphered low.
"Persistent Youth you have to prove by deeds your'e love is true"

"There's not a thing i would not do for you beloved"Said he then go said she. "To your mother dear and bring her heart to me" without another word
Youth left and went to hia mother dear

And opened her breast and took her heart

He did not shed a tear

Then back to his maiden fair he ran!
Unmindful of the rain

But hia feet slipped and he fell down

And loud! He groaned, with pain

Still in his hand he held a prize.
that would win his maiden's hands

And he tought his mother dear

So kind

So sweet

So fond

And he heard a voice

Not from his lips but all apart

"Get up" it said "We're you hurt child?"
