THE BELL.
From a popular superstition.
1.
Come hither, youths! and in your train
Your maidens bring:
The old man o'er his hoary lyre,
Old songs will sing.
The spirits of departed days
Again appear;
And sounds re-echo'd from the past,
Burst on his ear.
Near Hrub-Kozoged's village stream,
An ancient well,
Has held from immemorial time,
A hidden bell.
