[O spring, accept me to thy arms again]

O spring, accept me to thy arms again,
And lull me with the musick of your voice;
For am I not by heirship of your train,
And charter'd in your glory to rejoice?
Thou lovest me, and I in thee delight,
Nor can we part, till Nature give the word;
Then love with weeping thoughts, and aching sight,
Unto another Spring shall be deferr'd:
But let not thought of this supposed change
The pleasure of our soft embraces mar;
Throughout the golden meadows we will range,
And dance with Love beneath our joyous star:
Since leaves are in the bud, and daisies peep,
To Night and Winter banish woe and sleep!
