Analysis of Fragment: Follow To The Deep Wood's Weeds

Percy Bysshe Shelley 1792 (Horsham) – 1822 (Lerici)



Follow to the deep wood's weeds,
Follow to the wild-briar dingle,
Where we seek to intermingle,
And the violet tells her tale
To the odour-scented gale,
For they two have enough to do
Of such work as I and you.
