Fool! nor yet knows the complicated frame

A hundred season’d blocks may fitly claim:

[90]These let thy timely care provide before,

And pile beneath thy roof the ready store.

Improve the season: to the plough apply

Both thou and thine; and toil in wet and dry:

Haste to the field with break of glimmering morn,

That so thy grounds may wave with thickening corn.

In spring upturn the glebe: and break again

With summer tilth the iterated plain,
