by Gerard Manley Hopkins
     Glory be to God for dappled things——
     For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow;
     For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim;
     Fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches' wings;
     Landscape plotted and pieced——fold, fallow, and plough;
     And all trades, their gear and tackle and trim.
     All things counter, original, spare, strange;
     Whatever is fickle, freckled (who knows how?)
     With swift, slow; sweet, sour; adazzle, dim;
     He fathers-forth whose beauty is past change:
     Praise Him.
