Explore "Dairy Ode" by James McIntyre on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The sweet milkmaid of early days / Her own household she ably sways, / And her daughters now milk the cows, / And her sons they now guide the plows.
These pleasing changes on a farm / Doth give to rural life a charm, / Let occupation none upbraid, / But honor plowman and milkmaid.
