Fenny dells


Sweet solitude thou partner of my life 
Thou balm of hope & every pressing care 
Thou soothing silence oer the noise of strife 
These meadow flats & trees—the Autumn air 
Mellows my heart to harmony—I bear 
Lifes burthen happily—these fenny dells 
Seem Eden in this sabbath rest from care 
My heart with loves first early memory swells 
To hear the music of those village bells
