A SONG OF sPRINeTIME.

Sweet breeze that settst the summer buds
a-Swaying,
Dear lambs amid the primrose meadows
playing;
Let me not Think
o floods upon whose brink
The merry birds are maying.
Dream, softly dream! O blessed mother

Unsevered from thy girdle-lead me! feed

OF elemental wine
Perish remoter use
Of strength reserved for conflict yet to

How the great Mother mixes all our
bloods?
