SONG IN PRAISE OF SPRING. When the wind blows In the sweet rose-tree, And the cow lows On the fragrant lea, And the stream flows All bright and free, ’Tis not for thee, ’tis not for me; ’Tis not for any one here, I trow: The gentle wind bloweth, The happy cow loweth, The merry stream floweth, For all below! O the Spring! the bountiful Spring! She shineth and smileth on every thing. Where come the sheep? To the rich man’s moor. Where cometh sleep? To the bed that’s poor. Peasants must weep, And kings endure; That is a fate that none can cure: Yet Spring doeth all she can, I trow: She bringeth bright hours, She weaveth sweet flowers, She dresseth her bowers, For all below! O the Spring! the bountiful Spring! She shineth and smileth on every thing.
