When they lie about our feet | A |
February last my heart | B |
First at sight of thee was glad | C |
All unheard of as thou art | B |
Thou must needs I think have had | C |
Celandine and long ago | D |
Praise of which I nothing know | D |
- | |
I have not a doubt but he | E |
Whosoe'er the man might be | E |
Who the first with pointed rays | F |
Workman worthy to be sainted | G |
Set the sign board in a blaze | F |
When the rising sun he painted | H |
Took the fancy from a glance | I |
At thy glittering countenance | J |
- | |
Soon as gentle breezes bring | K |
News of winter's vanishing | K |
And the children build their bowers | L |
Sticking 'kerchief plots of mould | M |
All about with full blown flowers | L |
Thick as sheep in shepherd's fold | M |
With the proudest thou art there | N |
Mantling in the tiny square | N |
- | |
Often have I sighed to measure | O |
By myself a lonely pleasure | O |
Sighed to think I read a book | P |
Only read perhaps by me | E |
Yet I long could overlook | P |
Thy bright coronet and Thee | E |
And thy arch and wily ways | F |
And thy store of other praise | F |
- | |
Blithe of heart from week to week | Q |
Thou dost play at hide and seek | Q |
While the patient primrose sits | R |
Like a beggar in the cold | M |
Thou a flower of wiser wits | R |
Slipp'st into thy sheltering hold | M |
Liveliest of the vernal train | S |
When ye all are out again | T |
- | |
Drawn by what peculiar spell | U |
By what charm of sight or smell | U |
Does the dim eyed curious Bee | E |
Labouring for her waxen cells | V |
Fondly settle upon Thee | E |
Prized above all buds and bells | V |
Opening daily at thy side | W |
By the season multiplied | W |
- | |
Thou art not beyond the moon | X |
But a thing beneath our shoon | X |
Let the bold Discoverer thrid | W |
In his bark the polar sea | E |
Rear who will a pyramid | W |
Praise it is enough for me | E |
If there be but three or four | Y |
Who will love my little Flower | O |
