TO AN EARLY DAFFODIL; SONNET, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Thou yellow trumpeter of laggard spring!
Last Line: To fill the lonely wit caught his gold.
Subject(s): Daffodils


Thou yellow trumpeter of laggard Spring!
Thou herald of rich Summer's myriad flowers!
The climbing sun with new recovered powers
Does warm thee into being, through the ring
Of rich, brown earth he woos thee, makes thee fling
Thy green shoots up, inheriting the dowers
Of bending sky and sudden, sweeping showers,
Till ripe and blossoming thou art a thing
To make all nature glad, thou art so gay;
To fill the lonely wit caught his gold.
