Farewell to the Mountain.

Farewell to the mountain,
And sun-lighted vale,
The moss-bordered streamlets,
And sun-lighted vale.
All so bright, all so fair,
Here a seraph might dwell,
'Tis too lovely for me,
Farewell! Oh, Farewell!
Farewell, for how sweetly
Each sound meets mine ear;
The wild bee and butterly,
They may rest here.
Hark, hark, they are hum,
How it blends with the deep convent bell,
'Tis too lovely for me,
Farewell,-Oh, Farewell:
