Yield earth a welcome.
The sets thou plantest in thy fields, thereon
Take heed to hide them, and dig in withal
Will water trickle and fine vapour creep,
Aye, and there have been, who with weight.html">weight of stone
This serves for shield in pelting showers, and this
The slips once planted, yet remains to cleave
And toss the cumbrous hoes, or task the soil.html">soil
Your labouring bullocks through the vineyard's midst,
And ashen poles and sturdy forks to shape,
Laugh at the gales, and through the elm-tops win
Now while yet
Forbear their frailty, and while yet the bough
Launched on the void, assail it not as yet
Be culled with clip of fingers here and there.
Erect, then strip the leaves off, prune the boughs;
The arm of power, and stem the branchy tide.
Barred entrance, chiefly while the leaf is young
Beside harsh winters and o'erpowering sun,
Besport them, sheep and heifers glut their greed.
Dead weight of summer upon the parched crags,
Of their hard tooth, whose gnawing scars the stem.
The goat.html">goat at every altar, and old plays
The sons of Theseus through the country-side-
And on the smooth sward over oiled skins
The Ausonian swains, a race from Troy derived,
Grim masks of hollowed bark assume, invoke
Hang puppet-faces on tall pines to swing.
Till hollow vale o'erflows, and gorge profound,
Therefore to Bacchus duly will we sing
And dishes bear him; and the doomed goat
Whose entrails rich on hazel-spits we'll roast.
Hath needs beyond exhausting; the whole soil
With hoes reversed be crushed continually,
