Robert Louis Stevenson on Spring (season)

“It is the season now to go About the country high and low, Among the lilacs hand in hand, And two by two in fairyland.”

“Now the hedged meads renew Rustic odor, smiling hue, And the clean air shines and twinkles as the world goes wheeling through; And my heart springs up anew, Bright and confident and true, And my old love comes to meet me in the dawning and the dew.”
