TO B., by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Alone, the country life - how sweet
Last Line: With you are sweeter still.
Subject(s): Country Life


Alone, the country life—how sweet!
But wood and meadow, heath and hill,
The dewy morn, the noonday heat,
The nest half-hid, the poppied wheat,
The peaty purling rill,
The brake fern's ordorous retreat,
The hush of eve, serene, discreet—
With you are sweeter still.
