"In the woods the early aster,
And the cowslips In the meadow,
On the lawn the dandelion,
Lift their eyes to greet the sunshine;
And the heralds Ofsthe summer,
Those sweet. throated morning glories.
The brown ground. bird, and the red.breast
From the fragrant orange-bowers
or the sunny land where summer
Crowns the year with wreaths immortal;
They have journey ed to the northward,
With their songs and pretty legends,
Which they practised in the southland,
While their friends were chilled by winter,
Lettering 'mong the old Green Mountains,
They have come with song and fragrance,
Come again IKE rowing blessings,
Preachers OF the merry Sprlng.tlme,
Prophesying Of the summer,
And foretelling us harvest"
