Description

“The stories that the fairies told

 I learnt in English lanes of old,

 Where honeysuckle, wreathing high,

 Twined with the wild rose towards the sky,

 Or where pink-tinged anemones

 Grew thousand starred beneath the trees.

 I saw them, too, in London town,

 But sly and cautious, glancing down,

 Where in the grass the crocus grow

 And ladies ride in Rotten Row,

 St James’s Park’s a garden meet

 For tiny babes and fairy feet.

 But since I came to Germany,

 The good folk oftener talk to me;

 I find them in their native home

 When through the forest depths I roam,

 When through the trees blue mountains shine,

 The heart of fairyland is mine.”
