Explore "Love's First Hope" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
O Fair is Love's first hope to gentle mind! / As Eve's first star thro' fleecy cloudlet peeping; / And sweeter than the gentle south-west wind, / O'er willowy meads, and shadow'd waters creeping, / And Ceres' golden fields; -- the sultry hind / Meets it with brow uplift, and stays his reaping.
