Love
Follow to the deep wood’s weeds
From Complete Poetical Works, Oxford ed. Hutchinson (1914)
Love
Follow to the deep wood’s weeds,
Follow to the wild-briar dingle,
Where we seek to intermingle,
And the violet tells her tale
To the odour-scented gale,
For they two have enough to do
Of such work as I and you.
