"Then spring the living hers, profusely wild,
O'er all the deep-green earth, that task the power
Of botanist to number up their tribes:
Whether he steals along the lonely dale,
In silent search; or through the forest, rank
With what the dull incurious weeds account,
Bursts his blind way; or climbs the mountain rock,
Fir'd by the nodding verdure of its brow.
With such a liberal hand has nature flung
Their seeds abroad, blown them about in winds,
Innumerous, mix'd them with the nursing mould,
The moistening current, and prolific rain."

Thomson. - Spring.
