Can anybody help me fill in the missing lyrics in this transcription of True Lover's Discourse, as sung by Jerry Hicks on "Ulster's Flowery Vale":

One pleasant evening when pinks and daisies
Closed in their bosom one drop of dew
And feathered warblers of every species
Together warbled their notes so true
As I did stray wrapped in meditation
It charmed my heart for to hear them sing
Night's silent harbingers were   ?? rising
And the air in concert did sweetly ring


With joy transported    ??
And gazing round   ??
Two youthful lovers in conversation
Closely engaged I chanced to spy
This couple spoke with such force of reason
Their sentiments they expressed so clear
That for to listen to their conversation
My inclination was to draw near


Oh it is too late now to ask that question
Since you despise me before my friends
The   ??            , if you could command them
Were not sufficient for to make amends
For there's not a tree in the imperial forest
Maintains its colour except in one
And that's the laurel that I do cherish
And I'll always carry it in my right hand

Oh the blooming laurel sir you do admire it
Because its colour is always new
But there's another and you can't deny it
And it's just as fair in the garden ??
It's wisely resting throughout the winter
It blooms again when the spring draws near
The pen of Homer has wrote its praises
In June and July it does appear

Near Ballnahinch, about two miles distant
Where blackbirds whistle and thrushes sing
Where hills resounding and valleys sounding
A charming prospect all in the Spring
Where fair maid's beauty is never wanting
The lonely stranger a refuge finds
Near ?? , if you'll enquire
You'll find the author of these simple lines


Thanks
