Spring Song

William Griffith


SOFTLY at dawn a whisper stole
Down from the Green House on the Hill,
Enchanting many a ghostly bole
And wood-song with the ancient thrill.

Gossiping on the country-side,	5
Spring and the wandering breezes say,
God has thrown Heaven open wide
And let the thrushes out to-day.
