A square panel embroidered by May Morris. According to the object page on the William Morris Gallery website, "the overall design is worked in split, long, short and satin stich in silks on a gauze background. The outer border of the roundel is inscribed with the opening lines of Robert Herrick’s (1591-1674) poem ‘Welcome, maids of honour, you do bring in the Spring and wait upon her,’ worked in Gothic lettering. Four birds with outstretched wings are placed in the four corners." And there are flowers and leaves embroidered in the center of the roundel.
