MARCH.
The stormy March is at last,
With wind and cloud and changing skies;
i hear the rushing of the blast
That through the snowy valley flies
All, passing few are they who speak;
Wild, stormy month. in praise of thee:
Yet, though thy winds are loud and bleak,
Thou art welcome month to me.
For thou to Northern lands again
The glad and glorious sun doth bring.
And thou has Joined the gentle train
And wearest the gentle name of Spring.
And in thy reign of blast and storm
Smiles many long. bright, sunny day,
When the changed winds soft and warm,
And heaven puts on the blue of May.
Then sing aloud the gushing rills
In JOY that they again free,
And brightly leaping down the hills,
Renew their journey to the
The years departing beauty hides
OF wintry storms the Suilen threat:
But in thy sternest frown abides
look of kindly promise yet
Thou bring'st the hope of those calm skies
And that soft time of sunny showers
When the wide bloom. on earth that lies
Seems of brighter world than
