First Line: O pleasant orchard, emerald leaves
Last Line: To prove the world at last is merry.
Subject(s): Orchards
O PLEASANT orchard, emerald leaves
And shining fruit the summer weaves
Into a jewel of design
Finer than man will e'er refine;
But not until the springtime shows
Her beauty in the lovely blows
Of pear and apple, peach and cherry,
To prove the world at last is merry.
