Herbert Price - Spring lyrics

Green gra**, green trees, and greenest wildernesses Of cool green ferns; and ah! such long green spaces Sleeping within the sunlight's warm embraces! Green-shadowed rills that gurgle through green cresses, And deep green nooks wherein the locust dresses Her shining wings; green dells, and high green places O'er which bright swarms of sportive insect graces Flash and are gone, and know not what distress is; Green-covered spots; green fields where greenness less is By reason of the clouds of blowing daisies That variegate the verdure with their faces; Green arbours where all greenest loveliness is Like little billowy puffs of maiden tresses! All these leave on the soul their joyous traces.
