Gerard Manley Hopkins - Pied BeautyGerard Manley Hopkins - Pied Beauty
Work rating: Medium


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 áll trádes, 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.
