George Crabbe Quotes About Spring

• From powerful causes spring the empiric's gains, Man's love of life, his weakness, and his pains; These first induce him the vile trash to try, Then lend his name, that other men may buy.

  George Crabbe

  Pain, Powerful, Spring

• Blest be the gracious Power, who taught mankind
  To stamp a lasting image of the mind!
  Beasts may convey, and tuneful birds may sing,
  Their mutual feelings, in the opening spring;
  But Man alone has skill and power to send
  The heart's warm dictates to the distant friend;
  'Tis his alone to please, instruct, advise
  Ages remote, and nations yet to rise.

  Primavera, Corazón, Hombres

  George Crabbe (1858). “The Poetical Works of George Crabbe”, p.60

• When winter stern, his gloomy front uprears,
  A sable void the barren earth appears;
  The meads no more their former verdure boast,
  Fast-bound their streams, and all their beauty lost;
  The herds, the flocks, in icy garments mourn, and wildly murmur for the Spring's return;
  From snow-topp'd hills the whirlwinds keenly blow,
  Howl through the woods, and pierce the vales below,
  Through the sharp air a flaky torrent flies,
  Mocks the slow sight, and hides the gloomy skies.
