From Spring Days to Winter For Music

So let us fill our glasses And toast the Days of Gold;
When finds of wondrous treasure Set all the South ablaze,
And you and I were faithful mates All through the roaring days
OM Belton Castle to Solway side,
Hard by the bridge, is three days' ride

"Only a pound," said the auctioneer,"Only a pound; and I'm standing
Selling this animal, gain or loss —Only a pound for the drover's horse
