VI. Animate Nature“Hark, hark! the lark”
William Shakespeare (1564–1616)From “Cymbeline,” Act II. Sc. 3.
H
And Phœbus ’gins arise,
His steeds to water at those springs
On chaliced flowers that lies;
And winking Mary-buds begin
To ope their golden eyes;
With everything that pretty bin,
My lady sweet, arise;
Arise, arise!
