Brook and maiden sing together

Laughing, singing maid and brooklet;

The cronies gaze one to the other Wondering had the faries met.

Dipping outward from the shadows The fairy camp ^vas all in view;

An Indian "vs'ith two comely daughters Tent and fire and birch canoe.

An Indian trajDper and his daughters Camping by the charming river,

Trapping musquash on its waters Each one helping one another.

Slightly startled were the brownies,

Not a whit disturbed the father. As just glancing to the maidens

Asks, "will stop you rest my brudder?"

Singing daughter, smiling, pleasing, They much admiring happy camping ;

The father cordially inviting. Cronies step out at the landing.

Find they there a happy grouping,

"Laughing Water" musquash cooking;

A quiet sister basket making,

Dear old fader musquash skinning.

Each maiden wore a shawl of scarlet Fastened each with brooch of silver

Which "Laughing Water" says "is much old. Cause once belonwd to two errand mudder."
