27. Longing for the Darling. * Music by E. Hermes.

My darling now will leave me, What 's left for me behind? To know privation only And longing in my mind. Of thee I’m always thinking, My heart possess thou must, For thee alone I’ve given My hope, my life, my trust.

For look! over blue billows rowing The wedding folks home are going.
