<h3><SPAN name="10">LAUGHING SONG</SPAN></h3>
When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy,<br/>
And the dimpling stream runs laughing by;<br/>
When the air does laugh with our merry wit,<br/>
And the green hill laughs with the noise of it;
<br/><br/>When the meadows laugh with lively green,<br/>
And the grasshopper laughs in the merry scene;<br/>
When Mary and Susan and Emily<br/>
With their sweet round mouths sing ‘Ha ha he!’
<br/><br/>When the painted birds laugh in the shade,<br/>
Where our table with cherries and nuts is spread:<br/>
Come live, and be merry, and join with me,<br/>
To sing the sweet chorus of ‘Ha ha he!’
