MOTHER, I CANNOT MIND MY WHEEL


By: Walter Savage  Lander















Mother, I cannot mind my wheel;
  My fingers ache ache, my lips are dry;
O, if you felt the pain I feel
  But O, who ever felt as I

No longer could I doubt him true
  All other men may use deceit;
He always said my eyes were blue,
  And often swore my lips were sweet.
