- (continued from previous page)She answered them, weeping "My
love I am keeping,
For one who'll come back in the spring of the year."The old man with treasure, the
young man with pleasure
Still courted till Autumn was yellow
and sear.
But her vows were unbroken, for the same words were spoken; "My love will come back in the spring of the year."Next spring flowers were shining
and Mary sat turning
A wreath of their blooms and her
heart was not drear;
For with love warmly glowing, when
soft winds were blowing,
Her true love came back in
the spring of the year.- Collector
