The vernal warblers raise the song.

Rich in a thousand radiant dyes,

Around her steps the flow'rets rise,

The Zephyr sports, the sunbeams sleep

On the blue bosom of the deep.

And now, within my throbbing breast

I feel the influence of the Spring,

To ecstasy I tune my string,

And garlanded with odorous flowers,

I hasted to the shady grove,
