More from Thomas Parnell
A sudden splendour seemed to kindle day A breeze came breathing in a sweet perfume Blown from eternal gardens, filled the room.
We call it only pretty Fanny's way.
A fresher green the smelling leaves display And glittering as they tremble, cheer the day.
Remote from man, with God he passed the days; Prayer all his business, all his pleasure praise.
Still an angel appear to each lover beside, But still be a woman to you.
When Spring came on with fresh delight To cheer the soul, and charm the sight, While every easy breezes, softer rain And warmer suns salute the plain.
