Thread Name: Lyr Add: The Short Cut to Rosses (Nora H Chesson)
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Shortcut Through The Rosses
The second vers as you have it should go:

The fern uncurled to look at her
So very fair was she
....
That floats in from the sea.

Written by an Englishwoman named Nora Hopper, late 19C. Its usually laid out as three eight line verses.
