in a field of flowers

                                                       in a field of flowers
                                                       i falter and fall
                                                       in love with the most
                                                       beautiful beauty of all
                                                       with a voice so sweet
                                                       as soft as it is so small
                                                       as the fair fine figure
                                                       i know i thought i saw
                                                       i heard her singing
                                                       as if in a heavenly hall
                                                       and followed her voice
                                                       as if a longing lover's call
                                                       only to find before me
                                                       an insurmountable wall
                                                       between me and nothing
                                                       and nothing at all
