Here's a valentine nosegay for Mary	A
Some of Spring's earliest flowers	B
The ivy is green by the dairy	A
And so are these laurels of ours	B
Though the snow fell so deep and the winter was dreary	A
The laurels are green and the sparrows are cheery	A
	-
The snowdrops in bunches grow under the rose	C
And aconites under the lilac like fairies	D
The best in the bunches for Mary I chose	C
Their looks are as sweet and as simple as Mary's	D
The one will make Spring in my verses so bare	E
The other set off as a braid thy dark hair	E
	-
Pale primroses too at the old parlour end	F
Have bloomed all the winter 'midst snows cold and dreary	A
Where the lavender cotton kept off the cold wind	G
Now to shine in my valentine nosegay for Mary	A
And appear in my verses all Summer and be	A
A memento of fondness and friendship for thee	A
	-
Here's the crocus half opened that spreads into gold	H
Like branches of sunbeams left there by a fairy	A
I place them as such in these verses so cold	H
But they'll bloom twice as bright in the presence of Mary	A
These garden flowers crop't I will go to the field	I
And see what the valley and pasture land yield	I
	-
Here peeps the pale primrose from the skirts of the wild wood	J
And violet blue 'neath the thorn on the green	K
The wild flowers we plucked in the days of our childhood	J
On the very same spot as no changes have been	L
In the very same place where the sun kissed the leaves	M
And the woodbine its branches of thorns interweaves	M
	-
And here in the pasture all swarming with rushes	M
Is a cowslip as blooming and forward as Spring	N
And the pilewort like sunshine grows under the bushes	M
While the chaffinch there sitting is trying to sing	N
And the daisies are coming called stars of the earth	O
To bring to the schoolboy his Springtime of mirth	O
	-
Here then is the nosegay how simple it shines	M
It speaks without words to the ear and the eye	P
The flowers of the Spring are the best valentines	M
They are young fair and simple and pleasingly shy	P
That you may remain so and your love never vary	A
I send you these flowers as a valentine Mary	A
