Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEE FGHHIJKKLL MNIIOO P| Now spring appears with beauty crown'd | A |
| And all is light and life around | A |
| Why comes not Jane When friendship calls | B |
| Why leaves she not Augusta's walls | B |
| Where cooling zephyrs faintly blow | C |
| Nor spread the cheering healthful glow | C |
| That glides through each awaken'd vein | D |
| As skimming o'er the spacious plain | D |
| We look around with joyous eye | E |
| And view no boundaries but the sky | E |
| - | |
| Already April's reign is o'er | F |
| Her evening tints delight no more | G |
| No more the violet scents the gale | H |
| No more the mist o'erspreads the vale | H |
| The lovely queen of smiles and tears | I |
| Who gave thee birth no more appears | J |
| But blushing May with brow serene | K |
| And vestments of a livelier green | K |
| Commands the winged choir to sing | L |
| And with wild notes the meadows ring | L |
| - | |
| O come ere all the train is gone | M |
| No more to hail thy twenty one | N |
| That age which higher honor shares | I |
| And well becomes the wreath it wears | I |
| From lassitude and cities flee | O |
| And breathe the air of heav'n with me | O |
| - | |

| MAY | P |
