Song

Topics: classic

Inviting the influence of a young lady upon the opening year You wear the morning like your dress And are with mastery crownd; When as you walk your loveliness Goes shining all around: Upon your secret, smiling way Such new contents were found, The Dancing Loves made holiday On that delightful ground. Then summon April forth, and send Commandment through the flowers; About our woods your grace extend, A queen of careless hours. For O! not Vera veild in rain, Nor Dians sacred Ring, With all her royal nymphs in train Could so lead on the Spring.
