"I've ventured to tamper with Blake's text by re-imagining it as being sung by three Graces. Accordingly, I've changed the title from "Spring" to "Spring for Three Graces" and assigned the voices to three parts to which I've given traditional Greek Grace names. The madrigal-like repetition of the refrain is also my innovation. Otherwise, the original text is followed. Lyrics (in their original form) below; for how they match the melody, please see the score. In this sound file, flutes are used to simulate female voices."

'''Spring for Three Graces''' Sound the flute! Now it's mute! Bird's delight, Day and night, Nightingale, In the dale, Lark in sky, Merrily, Merrily merrily, to welcome in the year. Little boy, Full of joy; Little girl, Sweet and small; Cock does crow, So do you; Merry voice, Infant noise; Merrily, merrily, to welcome in the year. Little lamb, Here I am; Come and lick My white neck; Let me pull Your soft wool; Let me kiss Your soft face; Merrily, merrily, to welcome in the year.
