SPINNING WHEEL.
OVERWHELMING SPRING.

OVERWHELMING SPRING.
Spring is here, with the wind in her hair
And the yiOlets under her feet.
All the forests have found her fair,
And her lovers have found her sweet.
Springs a girl in lovely gown,
Little more than a child;
Bid her smile and the tears fall down,
FrOwn-and her laugh is wild.
Ay, for she has no heart, not she!
Hear her sing while you weep.
Spring wakes up without memory
Every year from her sleep.
While she slept we have lost our all,
Then she wakes and is glad,
Cries to US then to come at her call,
Wonders why are ye sad?'
Stands by graves in the dress of q bride;
What is the dirge ye sing?'
If we tell her that men have died,
What is Death?" says the Spring.
Spring, pass by, we have lived too long.
Take the primrose and go
Lest you learn from the mortals' song
All that the mortals know.
