SongS of MAY morning


NOW the bright morning-star

Day's harbinger

Comes dancing from the east

And leads with her The flowery May

Who from her green lap throws The yellow cowslip

And the pale primrose.

Hail,

Bounteous May

That dost inspire Mirth

And youth

And warm desire

Woods and groves are of thy dressing

Hill and dale

Doth boast thy blessing.

Thus we salute thee with our early song

And welcome thee

And wish thee long.
