Voice of the youth of the year,
Wren song and thrush song and cuckoo note clear!
Melody's core, the articulate soul of the Spring,--
Oh, to hear Sylvia sing!
Flower of the youth of the year,
Bell of the hyacinth, daffodil-spear!
Day dream of beauty and veriest vision of grace,--
Oh, to see Sylvia's face!
