The purity of passion Lyrics

As the sunshine wooes the water

Till it gleams with glad'ning smiles

And the burning earth's bare beauty

The soothing cloud beguiles

As the valley lies contented

Neath the shelt'ring mountain high

And the wild flow'r yields its sweetness

To the winsome butterfly

As the winds with gentle tremor

The willing leaves caress

And the vine entwines the oak t ree

With loving tenderness

As the valley lies contented

Neath the shelt'ring mountain high

And the wild flow'r yields its sweetness

To the winsome butterfly

As the planets in their orbits

Their satellites allure
