Rossetti, Christina Georgina, 1830-1894, Hughes, Arthur, 1832-1915, ill · London : Macmillan · leaf 49
O wind, where have you been,That you blow so sweet ? Among the violets Which blossom at your feet. The honeysuckle waits For Summer and for heat. But violets in the chilly SpringMake the turf so sweet. Brownie, Brownie, let down your milkWhite as swansdown and smooth as silk,Fresh as dew and pure… … On the grassy banksLambkins at their pranks ;Woolly sisters, woolly brothers Jumping off their feetWhile their woolly mothers Watch by them and bleat.
