I

Listen in the reader

When April comes, and pelts with buds And apple-blooms each orchard space, And takes the dogwood-whitened woods With rain and sunshine of her moods, Like your fair face, like your sweet face:

It’s honey for the bud and dew, And honey for the heart! And, oh, to be away with you Beyond the town and mart.
