William Allingham - In a Spring Grove

William Allingham - In a Spring Grove

Here the white-ray'd anemone is born, br Wood-sorrel, and the varnish'd buttercup; br And primrose in its purfled green swathed up, br Pallid and sweet round every budding thorn, br Gray ash, and beech with rusty leaves outworn. br Here, too the darting linnet hath her nest br In the blue-lustred holly, never shorn, br Whose partner cheers her little brooding breast, br Piping from some near bough.
