Now through the cloud where pipes the lark on high
His cheerly melody, sweet April comes,
Strewing gay flowers, of many varied dye; ltomos
Flowers which her breath calls from their winter
Now beams to Heaven the violets dewy eye;
"The mountain daisy" modestly resumes
Her vesture prim; the primrose censers slgn'
And tragrantly the gardens beauty blooms
o, eheerfully the streamet gurgles now,
Where coo the pigeons in the vocal grove
As April, though a cloud be on her brow, Hove,
Smiles, through her tears, and beams OF hope and
Young Hebe of the months, propitious nymph,
Pour out on the earth the fructifying lymph.
At thy approach mild April, mother Earth
Opens her bosom for the golden shower,
Which fills her heart with hope and grateful mirth;
Bringing Ceres's sons planteous dover.
From monarch oak cen to the humblest flower
All nature hallows thee. o, may no dearth,
No bitter blight, or pestilential power
Sadden the homes Of rural toll and worth.
Enough our isles have suffered. Let thy breath
Bear on its balm the boon of heathful life;
May plenty triumph Ger disease and death,
And stricken lands one more with joy be rife.
We hail thy presence, Hebe of the year!
And o, propitious be the smile and tear.
