Time of Roses
It was not in the WinterOur loving lot was cast;It was the time of roses—We pluck'd them as we pass'd!
That churlish season never frown'dOn early lovers yet:O no—the world was newly crown'dWith flowers when first we met!
'Twas twilight, and I bade you go,But still you held me fast;It was the time of roses—We pluck'd them as we pass'd!
