Talk:Poems That Every Child Should Know/The Noble Nature
Add topic the noble nature
IT is not growing like a tree
in bulk, doth make man batter be
or standing long an oak, three hundred year,
to fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere;
A lily of a day
Is fairer far in may,
Although it fall and die that night-
It was the plant and flower of light
In small proportions we just beauties see;
And in short measures life may perfect be.
-Ben Jonson
