"Sleeping Neath the Wilted Flowers" I can find the lyrics posted in several place on the internet, e.g., http://holiness-preaching.org/Lyrics/S014.html And I can find sheet music to a late-19th century piece of similar name and topic: "Sleeping Neath the Fair Spring Flowers." http://www.loc.gov/item/sm1876.10083b/ They lyrics are not interchangeable in any obvious way. I would love to find this music. |
