I	A
Latest earliest of the year	B
Primroses that still were here	C
Snugly nestling round the boles	D
Of the cut down chestnut poles	D
When December's tottering tread	E
Rustled 'mong the deep leaves dead	E
And with confident young faces	F
Peeped from out the sheltered places	F
When pale January lay	G
In its cradle day by day	G
Dead or living hard to say	G
Now that mid March blows and blusters	G
Out you steal in tufts and clusters	G
Making leafless lane and wood	H
Vernal with your hardihood	H
Other lovely things are rare	I
You are prodigal as fair	I
First you come by ones and ones	G
Lastly in battalions	G
Skirmish along hedge and bank	J
Turn old Winter's wavering flank	J
Round his flying footsteps hover	K
Seize on hollow ridge and cover	K
Leave nor slope nor hill unharried	H
Till his snowy trenches carried	H
O'er his sepulchre you laugh	L
Winter's joyous epitaph	L
	-
II	A
This too be your glory great	H
Primroses you do not wait	H
As the other flowers do	H
For the Spring to smile on you	H
But with coming are content	H
Asking no encouragement	H
Ere the hardy crocus cleaves	G
Sunny border 'neath the eaves	G
Ere the thrush his song rehearse	G
Sweeter than all poets' verse	G
Ere the early bleating lambs	G
Cling like shadows to their dams	G
Ere the blackthorn breaks to white	H
Snowy hooded anchorite	H
Out from every hedge you look	M
You are bright by every brook	M
Wearing for your sole defence	G
Fearlessness of innocence	G
While the daffodils still waver	K
Ere the jonquil gets its savour	K
While the linnets yet but pair	K
You are fledged and everywhere	K
Nought can daunt you nought distress	G
Neither cold nor sunlessness	G
You when Lent sleet flies apace	G
Look the tempest in the face	G
As descend the flakes more slow	N
From your eyelids shake the snow	N
And when all the clouds have flown	O
Meet the sun's smile with your own	O
Nothing ever makes you less	G
Gracious to ungraciousness	G
March may bluster up and down	P
Pettish April sulk and frown	P
Closer to their skirts you cling	Q
Coaxing Winter to be Spring	Q
	-
III	A
Then when your sweet task is done	R
And the wild flowers one by one	R
Here there everywhere do blow	N
Primroses you haste to go	N
Satisfied with what you bring	Q
Fading morning stars of Spring	Q
You have brightened doubtful days	G
You have sweetened long delays	G
Fooling our enchanted reason	R
To miscalculate the season	R
But when doubt and fear are fled	H
When the kine leave wintry shed	H
And 'mid grasses green and tall	S
Find their fodder make their stall	S
When the wintering swallow flies	G
Homeward back from southern skies	G
To the dear old cottage thatch	T
Where it loves to build and hatch	T
That its young may understand	H
Nor forget this English land	H
When the cuckoo mocking rover	K
Laughs that April loves are over	K
When the hawthorn all ablow	S
Mimics the defeated snow	N
Then you give one last look round	H
Stir the sleepers underground	H
Call the campion to awake	U
Tell the speedwell courage take	U
Bid the eyebright have no fear	K
Whisper in the bluebell's ear	K
Time has come for it to flood	H
With its blue waves all the wood	H
Mind the stichwort of its pledge	V
To replace you in the hedge	V
Bid the ladysmocks good bye	A
Close your bonnie lids and die	A
And without one look of blame	W
Go as gently as you came	W
