Not that the earth doth yield In hill or dale, in forest or in field, A rarer plant.
More from Guillaume de Salluste Du Bartas
- Or savage beasts upon a thousand hils.
- To man the earth seems altogether No more a mother, but a step-dame rather.
- 'T is what you will,-or will be what you would.
- For where's the state beneath the firmament That doth excel the bees for government?
- With tooth and nail.
- A good turn at need, At first or last, shall be assur'd of meed.
- Oft seen in forehead of the frowning skies.
- There is no theam more plentifull to scan Than is the glorious goodly frame of man.
