Th' appointed time<br>With pious toil fulfill'd, the callow young,<br>Warm'd and expanded into perfect life,<br>Their brittle bondage break, and come to light,<br>A helpless family, demanding food<br>With constant clamour. O what passions then,<br>What melting sentiments of kindly care,<br>On the new parents seize! Away they fly <br>Affectionate, and undesiring bear<br>The more delicious morsel to their young;<br>Which equally distributed, again<br>The search begins. Even so a gentle pair,<br>By fortune sunk, but form'd of gen'rous mould,<br>And charm'd with cares beyond the vulgar breat;<br>In some lone cot amid the distant woods,<br>Sustain'd alone by providential Heav'n,<br>Oft, as they weeping, eye their infant train, <br>Check their own appetites, and give them all.<br>Nor toil alone they scorn: exalting love,<br>By the great Father of the spring inspired,<br>Gives instant courage to the fearful race,<br>And to the simple art. With stealthy wing,<br>Should some rude foot their woody haunts molest,<br>Amid a neighbouring bush they silent drop,<br>And whirring thence, as if alarmed, deceive<br>The unfeeling shool-boy. Hence, around the head<br>Of wandering swain, the white winged plover wheels<br>Her sounding flight, and then directly on,<br>In long excursion, skims the level lawn,<br>To tempt him from her nest. The wild-duck hence,<br>O'er the rough moss; and o'er the trackless waste<br>The heath-hen flutters; pious fraud! to lead<br>The hot-pursuing spaniel far astray.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=James+Thomson">James Thomson</a><div class=q>
