SEE the Spring herself discloses, And the Graces gather roses; See how the becalmed seas Now their swelling waves appease; How the duck swims, how the crane Comes from winter home again; See how Titan's cheerful ray Chaseth the dark clouds away; Now in their new robes of green Are the plowman's labors seen: Now the lusty teeming Earth Springs each hour with a new birth; Now the olive blooms: the vine Now doth with plump pendants shine; And with leaves and blossoms now Freshly bourgeons every bough. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AN EPITAPH ON A ROBIN REDBEAST by SAMUEL ROGERS ODES: BOOK 1: ODE 16.
