COME spread your wings as I spread mine	A
And leave the crowded hall	B
For where the eyes of twilight shine	A
O'er evening's western wall	B
	-
These are the pleasant Berkshire hills	C
Each with its leafy crown	D
Hark from their sides a thousand rills	C
Come singing sweetly down	D
	-
A thousand rills they leap and shine	A
Strained through the shadowy nooks	C
Till clasped in many a gathering twine	A
They swell a hundred brooks	C
	-
A hundred brooks and still they run	E
With ripple shade and gleam	F
Till clustering all their braids in one	E
They flow a single stream	F
	-
A bracelet spun from mountain mist	G
A silvery sash unwound	H
With ox bow curve and sinuous twist	G
It writhes to reach the Sound	H
	-
This is my bark a pygmy's ship	I
Beneath a child it rolls	C
Fear not one body makes it dip	I
But not a thousand souls	C
	-
Float we the grassy banks between	J
Without an oar we glide	K
The meadows drest in living green	J
Unroll on either side	K
	-
Come take the book we love so well	L
And let us read and dream	F
We see whate'er its pages tell	L
And sail an English stream	F
	-
Up to the clouds the lark has sprung	M
Still trilling as he flies	C
The linnet sings as there he sung	M
The unseen cuckoo cries	C
	-
And daisies strew the banks along	N
And yellow kingcups shine	A
With cowslips and a primrose throng	N
And humble celandine	A
	-
Ah foolish dream when Nature nursed	O
Her daughter in the West	P
The fount was drained that opened first	O
She bared her other breast	P
	-
On the young planet's orient shore	Q
Her morning hand she tried	K
Then turned the broad medallion o'er	R
And stamped the sunset side	K
	-
Take what she gives her pine's tall stem	S
Her elm with hanging spray	T
She wears her mountain diadem	S
Still in her own proud way	T
	-
Look on the forests' ancient kings	C
The hemlock's towering pride	K
Yon trunk had thrice a hundred rings	C
And fell before it died	K
	-
Nor think that Nature saves her bloom	U
And slights our grassy plain	V
For us she wears her court costume	U
Look on its broidered train	V
	-
The lily with the sprinkled dots	C
Brands of the noontide beam	F
The cardinal and the blood red spots	C
Its double in the stream	F
	-
As if some wounded eagle's breast	P
Slow throbbing o'er the plain	V
Had left its airy path impressed	P
In drops of scarlet rain	V
	-
And hark and hark the woodland rings	C
There thrilled the thrush's soul	W
And look that flash of flamy wings	C
The fire plumed oriole	W
	-
Above the hen hawk swims and swoops	C
Flung from the bright blue sky	X
Below the robin hops and whoops	C
His piercing Indian cry	X
	-
Beauty runs virgin in the woods	C
Robed in her rustic green	J
And oft a longing thought intrudes	C
As if we might have seen	J
	-
Her every finger's every joint	Y
Ringed with some golden line	A
Poet whom Nature did anoint	Y
Had our wild home been thine	A
	-
Yet think not so Old England's blood	Z
Runs warm in English veins	C
But wafted o'er the icy flood	Z
Its better life remains	C
	-
Our children know each wildwood smell	L
The bayberry and the fern	A2
The man who does not know them well	L
Is all too old to learn	A2
	-
Be patient On the breathing page	B2
Still pants our hurried past	C2
Pilgrim and soldier saint and sage	B2
The poet comes the last	C2
	-
Though still the lark voiced matins ring	D2
The world has known so long	N
The wood thrush of the West shall sing	D2
Earth's last sweet even song	N
