This is the meadow. It slopes from bright South down to the West and North from the primroses in the southern hedge down through the violets, sometimes white, in the western hedge tipping down to the rabbit warren and down to the wild garlic in perpetual shadow in the northern ditch shouting among the nettles Dear to me this lovely meadow and lovable poem.
