The year's at the spring


The year’s at the spring
And the day’s at the morn;
Morning’s at seven;
The hillside’s dew-pearled;
The lark’s on the wing;
The snail’s on the thorn:
God’s in his heaven –
All’s right with the world!

"What can your eye desire to see ...."


“What can your eye desire to see, your ears to hear, your mouth to take, or your nose to smell, that is not to be had in an orchard, with abundance of variety?  What more delightsome than an infinite variety of sweet smelling flowers, decking with sundry colours the green mantle of the earth, the universal mother of us all.”

William Lawson
