Down By The Salley Gardens http://poetry.poetryx.com/poems/1476/ <br class="br">Crossways (1889) <br class="br">Context: p>Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;<br>She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.<br>She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;<br>But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.In a field by the river my love and I did stand,<br>And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.<br>She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;<br>But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.</p
