Trying to get links from an RSS feed with Syndicationitem

I am trying to get links from an rss feed like so:

<item>
<title>
Mothers CAN wear the same clothes as their daughters
</title>
<link>
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-4408430/Mothers-wear-clothes-daughters.html?ITO=1490&ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490
</link>
<description>
Stylist Trinny, 53, appeared on This Morning in a pair of white striped culottes from Urban Outfitters that she bought after admiring them on her 13-year-old daughter, Lyla Elichaoff.

</item>

My code to loop through the rss feed items

    private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string url = textBox1.Text;
        XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(url);
        SyndicationFeed feed = SyndicationFeed.Load(reader);
        reader.Close();
        foreach (SyndicationItem item in feed.Items)
        {
            String subject = item.Links.
            articletext.Text = subject;
        }
    }

I have tried 'item.links.tostring();' and 'item.link;' and neither seems to work, how can I get the RSS feed's links?

you can access links like this:

foreach (SyndicationItem item in feed.Items)
{
    string link = item.Links[0].Uri.ToString();
    string text = item.Summary.Text;
}
