��1. The shades of night were fall- ing fast, Tral la la, Tral la la, As through an Al - pine vil- lage passed,

2. His brow was sad, his eye be-neath, Tral la la, Tral la la, Flashed like a faulchion from its sheaf,'

3. "O stay," the maid- eu said," and rest," Tral la la, Tral la la,*'Thywea- ry head up - on this breast,"

Tral la la. la la! And like a sil-ver clar -ion rung The ac-cents of that unknown tongue,

Tral la la la la! A tear stood in his bright blue eye, But still he answered with a sigh,

��4 At break of day as heavenward Tral la la, tral la la ! The pious monks of Saint Bernard,

Tral la la la la! Uttered the oft repeated prayer, A voice cried through the startled air, Chokls. Imitating a watchman's rattle.

��1 I I 6 A traveller, by the faithful hound, Tral la la, Tral la la ! Half buried in the snow was found,

Tral la la la la ! Still grasping in his hand of ice, That banner with the strange device, Chorus.
