Lenore.(Sings):
FINIS.
There was laughter in the sun,
And your day was scarce begun,
Gay Ladies.
As you loiter'd where the shade is, a dainty web you spun;
Day was never found too long,
There was music, there was song,
In your lover's merry throng,
Gay Ladies.
But the Town new faces please,
And the seasons burn and freeze,
Gay Ladies.
What was pleasure, now a trade is, and the wine is on the lees.
As youth and looks slip off,
You know the chairman's scoff,
