William Barnes (Уильям Барнс)

Third Collection. Beauty Undecked

The grass mid sheen when wat’ry beäds
O’ dew do glitter on the meäds,
An’ thorns be bright when quiv’rèn studs
O’ raïn do hang upon their buds—
As jewels be a-meäde by art
To zet the plaïnest vo’k off smart

But sheäkèn ivy on its tree,
An’ low-bough’d laurel at our knee,
Be bright all day, without the gleäre,
O’ drops that duller leäves mid weär—
As Jeäne is feäir to look upon
In plaïnest gear that she can don.
