T've weeded out the onion bed and banked the celery, And T've transplanted cabbage plants and propped the apple tree, And 1 have salted all the sheep and fixed the chicken coop, And run all the errands, mother, till I felt my spirits droop. ‘ou're waking early, call me early, mother, I know where the graylings play and where the pools are clear, And I've dug all the worms [ want and cut an alder pole, And corks will bob to-morrow morn in that old fishin’ hole.
