THE VOICE OF SPRING. 



Uy MRS. HEMANS. 

 ( come, I come ! yc have ccUed mr long, 

 I come o'er the mountainp whh light and song ! 

 Ye may trace my step o'er the wakening earth, 

 i>y the winds which icJl of ihe vioh-t's htrth, 

 liv the primrose-stars in the phadojvy grass, 

 By the green leaves opening be I pasi. 



I have breathed on the !iouth, and the cheenut flowers 

 By thousands have burst from the foreat-bowerB* 

 Arid the ancient gravcE, and the fallen I'ancs, 

 Are veii'd with wreaths on Italian plains, 

 —But it is not for me, in ray hour of bloom, 

 To speak of the ruin or the tomb '. 



I have pass'd o'er the hills of the stormviiorth, 



And the larch has hung all his tusseli? forth, 



'1 ho fisher is out on the sunny sea, 



And the rein-deer hounda thrnugrt the pasture free, 



And the pine has a fringe of eul'ter green, 



And the mos9 luoks bright wore my step has been. 



I have aent througli the wtiod-paihs a gentle sigh, 

 And callM out each voice of the deeji blue sky, 

 From the night-birJ's lay through the starry time, 

 In tlie grovPE tpf ihf soft Hesperian cHiiie, 

 To the swan's wild note by the Iceland lakes, 

 When the dark fir-bough into verdure breaks. 



From the Atreams ami founts I have loosed the chain : 

 They are sweeping on to the silvery main. 

 They aro flashing down from themonntain-brows. 

 They ore flinging spray on the forest bougiie, 

 Thoy are bursting fresh from their sparry ca^eg, 

 And the earth reauunds with the joy of waves. 



Come Ebrlh, O ye children of gladness, come! 

 Where the violets lie Biuy be your home. 

 Ye of tlie rose cheek and dew-brighl cm. 

 And the bounding footsteps, to rncf t me fly. 

 With the lyre, and the wtealli. and the joyous lay. 

 Come forth to the sun.<hiiio, I may not stay I 



Away from the dwellings of caro worn men, 

 Tlie waters are sparkling in wnnj am! gteo 

 Away from thf chamber and dusky heartli, 

 Tlie young leaves are dancing in bieezy nurtS^ 

 Tiuir light sti<ni8 ihrilUothe wild wood strailis, 

 Ard Youth i-j abr^jad in my gre^ dumains. 



But ye i ye are changed siiic« ye met me last ; 



A shade of earth has been round you cast ! 



There ia that come over your brow and eye 



Which speaks of a wi.rld wIh'd; Ihe fi^nvers must die. 



Ye smite I but your smilt-- haih a dimness yet — 



— Oh ! what have ye look'd on mnce last we met ' 



Ye are changed, yc are changed ! and I see not iicre 

 Al! whom I Raw i,ii the vaniPhMyenr: 

 'J (isre were graceful beudlSTW'-'h rijigiels bright, 

 Which inss'fl in ilic breeze wim a play of light ; 

 'fjiere were eyes, in whose glifiuring I.uighvei lay, 

 IVo faint reuic:rbtuncc ofdull Jci-ay. 



There were stcpi ihatflew o'er the cowslip's .htad, 



A3 if for abau-^uei all earth wen- spmad; 



Thece were voices thai rung througii the sapiihire sky 



Aud had not a sound oL' mortality ! 



— Aro they gone? h» ilioir mirth from the green liilU pass'd i 



■ — Ve have look'd 011 i)caih i'uico yc n.el me JasL ! 



I know whtmcc the shadow comes o^'er ye now, 

 Ve have strewn the dust on the suony biow ! 

 Ve have "Men the- loiolj lo lUc eaiiliN emhrace. 

 febe hath take:i thr Itiin^K of Bcouty*s race! 

 With their tan;^liini; tiye and their testal crowa. 

 They are gone from aiuung you in tiiluQce down. 



Thpy are gone fron: amongst you, thf bright and fair, 

 Ye iiavo loit thogloam ofth.'-ir slriiing hair ! 

 — But r know tf a world whiTP tliero falls 110 blight, 

 I 5hMll find ihuni there, with their eyes t>f light ! 

 ^ IVKprr Itc-eih, mi(l«i the blooms of thp morn may dwotl, 

 t turrj no rongei— farewell ! fafowcll!
