Сторінка 133 - For the kind spring, which but salutes us here, Inhabits there and courts them all the year; Ripe fruits and blossoms on the same trees live. At once they promise what at once they give; So sweet the air, so moderate the clime, None sickly lives or dies before his time; Heaven sure has kept this spot of earth uncurst To show how all things were created first.
