Is it the Spring	A
Or are the birds all wrong	B
That play on flute and viol	C
A thousand strong	B
In minstrel galleries	D
Of the long deep wood	E
Epiphanies	D
Of bloom and bud	F
	-
Grave minstrels those	D
Of deep responsive chant	G
But see how yonder goes	D
Dew drunk with giddy slant	G
Yon Shelley lark	H
And hark	H
Him on the giddy brink	I
Of pearly heaven	J
His fairy anvil clink	I
	-
Or watch in fancy	D
How the brimming note	K
Falls like a string of pearls	D
From out his heavenly throat	K
Or like a fountain	J
In Hesperides	D
Raining its silver rain	L
In gleam and chime	M
On backs of ivory girls	D
Twice happy rhyme	M
	-
Ah none of these	D
May make it plain	L
No image we may seek	N
Shall match the magic of his gurgling beak	N
	-
And many a silly thing	A
That hops and cheeps	D
And perks his tiny tail	C
And sideway peeps	D
And flitters little wing	A
Seems in his consequential way	O
To tell of Spring	A
	-
The river warbles soft and runs	D
With fuller curve and sleeker line	P
Though on the winter blackened hedge	Q
Twigs of unbudding iron shine	P
And trampled still the river sedge	Q
	-
And O the Sun	J
I have no friend so generous as this Sun	J
That comes to meet me with his big warm hands	D
And O the Sky	R
There is no maid how true	S
Is half so chaste	T
As the pure kiss of greening willow wands	D
Against the intense pale blue	S
Of this sweet boundless overarching waste	T
	-
And see dear Heaven but it is the Spring	A
See yonder yonder by the river there	U
Long glittering pearly fingers flash	V
Upon the warm bright air	U
Why 'tis the heavenly palm	W
The Christian tree	D
Whose budding is a psalm	X
Of natural piety	D
Soft silver notches up the smooth green stem	Y
Ah Spring must follow them	Y
It is the Spring	A
	-
O Spirit of Spring	A
Whose strange instinctive art	Z
Makes the bird sing	A
And brings the bud again	A2
O in my heart	Z
Take up thy heavenly reign	L
And from its deeps	D
Draw out the hidden flower	B2
And where it sleeps	D
Throughout the winter long	B
O sweet mysterious power	B2
Awake the slothful song	B
	-
February	D
