“When strong and capable, they seek to dare
Whatever chances fly 'twixt dawn and night,
We drive them from our haunts to forage, where
Conquering the risks of danger with delight,
They shape to comely creatures. When wild spring
Bursts into bright innumerable green,
Thro' silvery showers and sunshine widening
On wood and copse throughout the boundless scene;
Impassioned then clear from the gathered crowd
Of flitting wings, shall rise their voices loud!
Whatever chances fly 'twixt dawn and night,
We drive them from our haunts to forage, where
Conquering the risks of danger with delight,
They shape to comely creatures. When wild spring
Bursts into bright innumerable green,
Thro' silvery showers and sunshine widening
On wood and copse throughout the boundless scene;
Impassioned then clear from the gathered crowd
Of flitting wings, shall rise their voices loud!
