Excerpt from The World's Great Masterpieces, Vol. 9: History, Biography, Science, Philosophy Poetry, the Drama, Travel Adventure, Fiction, Etc.; A Record of the Great Things That I Have Been Said and Thought and Done From the Beginning of History One of the first achievements in the country is early rising! With the lark with the sun while the dew is on the grass, under the opening eyelids of the morn, and so forth. Early rising! What can be done with five or six o'clock in town? What may not be done at those hours in the country? With the hoe, the rake, the dibble, the spade, the watering-pot? To plant, prune, drill, transplant, graft, train, and sprinkle! Mrs. S. And I agreed to rise early in the country.
Richard and Robin were two pretty men, They laid in the bed till the clock struck ten Up jumped Richard and looked at the sky: O Brother Robin the sun '8 very high!
Early rising in the country is not an instinct; it is a sentiment, and must be cultivated.
