| 249. To the Western Wind |
| SWEET western wind, whose luck it is, | |
| Made rival with the air, | |
| To give Perenna's lip a kiss, | |
| And fan her wanton hair: | |
| Bring me but one, I'll promise thee, | 5 |
| Instead of common showers, | |
| Thy wings shall be embalm'd by me, | |
| And all beset with flowers. |
