Sydney had been there I would have enjoyed myself much better:
We are just middlein at Present hoping you are quite well: So
I will now conclude with best love to all of you.

On the Banks of Allen Water
On the Banks of Allen Water, when the sweet spring time did
fall,
Was the miller's lovely daughter, fairest of them all.
For his bride a soldier sought her, and a winning tongue had
he;
On the Banks of Allen Water, none so gay as she. |
