Bid adieu, adieu, adieu,Bid adieu to girlish days,Happy Love is come to wooThee and woo thy girlish ways —The zone that doth become thee fair,The snood upon thy yellow hair.
Bid adieu, adieu, adieu,Adieu to girlish days
When thou hast heard his name uponThe bugles of the cherubimBegin thou softly to unzoneThy girlish bosom unto himAnd softly to undo the snoodThat is the sign of maidenhood.
Bid adieu, adieu, adieu,Adieu to girlish days
(James Joice)
of nog: Kevin McDermott, tenor, and Ralph Richey, pianist

"Loonely in me loneness. For all their faults. I am passing out. O bitter ending! I'll slip away before they're up. They'll never see. Nor know. Nor miss me. And it's old and old and it's sad and old it's sad and weary I go back to you, my cold father, my cold mad father, my cold mad feary father, till the near sight of the mere size of him, the moyles and moyles of it, moananonaning, makes me seasilt saltsick, and I rush, my only, into your arms"
(James Joyce, uit: Finnegans Wake)
