  William Cullen Bryant, “The Ages”

• The country ever has a lagging Spring,
  Waiting for May to call its violets forth,
  And June its roses-showers and sunshine bring,
  Slowly, the deepening verdure o'er the earth;
  To put their foliage out, the woods are slack,
  And one by one the singing-birds come back.
  
  Within the city's bounds the time of flowers
  Comes earlier. Let a mild and sunny day,
  Such as full often, for a few bright hours,
  Breathes through the sky of March the airs of May,
  Shine on our roofs and chase the wintry gloom-
  And lo! our borders glow with sudden bloom.

  William Cullen Bryant, “The Battle-Field”

• Earth, that nourished thee, shall claim
  Thy growth, to be resolved to earth again,
  And, lost each human trace, surrendering up
  Thine individual being, shalt thou go
  To mix forever with the elements,
  To be a brother to the insensible rock
  And to the sluggish clod, which the rude swain
  Turns with his share, and treads upon. The oak
  Shall send his roots abroad, and pierce thy mold.

  Death, Brother, Rocks

  William Cullen Bryant, “Thanatopsis”

• Father, thy hand
  Hath reared these venerable columns, thou
  Didst weave this verdant roof. Thou didst look down
  Upon the naked earth, and, forthwith, rose
  All these fair ranks of trees. They, in thy sun,
  Budded, and shook their green leaves in thy breeze,
  And shot towards heaven.

• Thou who wouldst see the lovely and the wild
  Mingled in harmony on Nature's face,
  Ascend our rocky mountains. Let thy foot
  Fail not with weariness, for on their tops
  The beauty and the majesty of earth,
  Spread wide beneath, shall make thee to forget
  The steep and toilsome way.
