Tn year stood at its equinox, And bluff the North was blowing, A bleat of lambs came from the flocks. Green, hardy things were growing; I met a maid with shining locks Where milky kine were lowing.

She wore a kerchief on her neck, Her bare arm showed its dimple, Her apron spread without a Speck, Her air was frank and simple.

She milked into a wooden pail, And sang a country ditty, An innocent, fond lover's tale, That was not wise nor witty, Pathetically rustical, Too pointless for the city.

She kept in time without a beat, As true as church-bell ringers, Unless she tapped time with her feet, Or squeezed it with her fingers; Her clear, unstudied notes were sweet As many a practised singer's.

I stood a minute out of sight, Stood silent for a minute, To eye the pail, and creamy white The frothing milk within it To eye the comely milking-maid, Herself so fresh and creamy. Good-day to you at last I said; She turned her head to see me. Good-day! She said, with lifted head.
