[In April all the lanes and woods are full of]
In April all the lanes and woods are full ofPrimroses violets and wood anemonies
Theres many a bunch or branch of may they pull off
Littered on roads, in lanes, by woods, where many has
Broke off as first in leaf—and sweet as any is
544
To fade where they were plucked—this rush swamp rather fenny is
Yet smell smock show their lilac up and down
And mosses green as grass among the brown.
