The festive news to earth dost bring | F |
A fragrant messenger of Spring | F |

But tender blossom why so pale | G |
Dost hear stern Winter in the gale | G |
And didst thou tempt the ungentle sky | H |
To catch one vernal glance and die | H |

Such the wan lustre Sickness wears | B |
When Health's first feeble beam appears | B |
So languid are the smiles that seek | I |

When timorous Hope the head uprears | B |
Still drooping and still moist with tears | B |

And sweeter far the early blow | K |
Fast following after storms of Woe | K |
