Oh the Broom, the yellow Broom, The ancient poet sung it, And dear it is on summer days To lie at rest among it. I know the realms where people say The flowers have not their fellow; I know where they shine out like suns, The crimson and the yellow.

But ne'er was flower so fair as this, In modern days or olden; It groweth on its nodding stem Like to a garland golden.
