CONTENT by NORMAN ROWLAND GALE

First Line: THOUGH SINGING BUT THE SHY AND SWEET
Last Line: BE YOURS ALL OTHER BLISS!
Subject(s): CONTENTMENT; SINGING & SINGERS; SONGS;

THOUGH singing but the shy and sweet
Untrod by multitudes of feet,
Songs bounded by the brook and wheat,
I have not failed in this,
The only lure my woodland note,
To win all England's whitest throat!
O bards in gold and fire who wrote,
Be yours all other bliss!
