Ravenna Recited in the Theatre, Oxford, June 26, 1878 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Ravenna: Recited in the Theatre, Oxford, June 26, 1878 The rose that burgeons on the climbing briar, The crocus-bed, (that seems a moon of fire Round-girdled with a purple marriage-ring) And all the flowers of our English Spring, Fond snow-drops, and the bright-starred daffodil. Up starts the lark beside the murmuring mill, And breaks the gossamer-threads of early dew And down the river, like a flame of blue.
