samuel taylor coleridge - to a primrose - richard mitchley lyrics

Loading...

thy smiles i note, sweet early flower
that peeping from thy rustic bower
the festive news to earth dost bring
a fragrant messenger of spring

but, tender blossom, why so pale?
dost hear stern winter in the gale?
and didst thou tempt the ungentle sky
to catch one vernal glance and die?

such the wan l*stre sickness wears
when health’s first feeble beam appears;
so languid are the smiles that seek
to settle on the care*worn cheek

when timorous hope the head uprears
still drooping and still moist with tears
if, through dispersing grief, be seen
of bliss the heavenly spark serene

and sweeter far the early blow
fast following after storms of woe
than (comfort’s riper season come)
are full*blown joys and pleasure’s gaudy bloom

- richard mitchley lyrics
