William Blake (1757–1827). The Poetical Works. 1908.
Poems from the Rossetti MS.: Earlier PoemsThou hast a lap full of seed
T
And this is a fine country,
Why dost thou not cast thy seed,
And live in it merrily?
And turn it into fruitful land?
For on no other ground
Can I sow my seed,
Without tearing up
Some stinking weed.
