VI. MARCH.

T X 7E like March, his shoes are purple,

  • * He is new and high ;

Makes he mud for dog and peddler,

Makes he forest dry ; Knows the adder's tongue his coming,

And begets her spot. Stands the sun so close and mighty

That our minds are hot. News is he of all the others ;

Bold it were to die With the blue-birds buccaneering

On his British sky.
