Fruittrees blossom; woods grow green again; Winter's rage is past: O ye young men, With the Maybloom shake off sadness! Love is luring you to join the maidens' gladness. [70] Let us then together sport and play; Cytherea bids the young be gay: Laughter soft and happy voices, Hope and love invite to mirth when May rejoices. All the spring is in the lyric next upon my list. THE RETURN OF SPRING: No. 12. Spring returns, the glad newcomer, Bringing pleasure, banning pain: Meadows bloom with early summer, And the sun shines out again: All sad thoughts and passions vanish; Plenteous Summer comes to banish Winter with his starveling train. Hails and snows and frosts together Melt and thaw like dews away; While the spring in cloudless weather Sucks the breast of jocund May; Sad's the man and born for sorrow Who can live not, dares not borrow Gladness from a summer's day. Full of joy and jubilation, Drunk with honey of delight, [71]Are the lads whose aspiration Is the palm of Cupid's fight! Youths, we'll keep the laws of Venus, And with joy and mirth between us Live and love like Paris wight! <strong>The</strong> next has the same accent of gladness, though it is tuned to a somewhat softer and more meditative note of feeling.
THE SWEETNESS OF THE SPRING. No. 13. Vernal hours are sweet as clover, With love's honey running over; Every heart on this earth burning Finds new birth with spring's returning. In the springtime blossoms flourish, Fields drink moisture, heaven's dews nourish; Now the griefs of maidens, after Dark days, turn to love and laughter. Whoso love, are loved, together Seek their pastime in spring weather; And, with time and place agreeing, Clasp, kiss, frolic, far from seeing. Gradually the form of the one girl whom the lyrist loves emerges from this wealth of description.[72] THE SUIT TO PHYLLIS. No. 14. Hail! thou longedfor month of May, Dear to lovers every day! Thou that kindlest hour by hour Life in man and bloom in bower! O ye crowds of flowers and hues That with joy the sense confuse, Hail! and to our bosom bring Bliss and every jocund thing! Sweet the concert of the birds; Lovers listen to their words: For sad winter hath gone by, And a soft wind blows on high. Earth hath donned her purple vest, Fields with laughing flowers are dressed, Shade upon the wild wood spreads, Trees lift up their leafy heads; Nature in her joy today Bids all living things be gay; Glad her face and fair her grace
