I never can mount my steed again With the helmet upon my brow. No solace I feel in my dungeon Except when your voice is heard; And you beat the bars dith your snowy wings Then fly to her bower sweet dove. dove~ She marvels much at my long delay~ Or perhaps your voice she hath heard. She may have thought I have falsely strayed. Then fly to her bower~ sweet dove. I can live in my dungeon And waste away youth; I can fall at the conqueror's sound. But I cannot endure Should she doubt my truth; Then fly to her bower sweet dove. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
