Spring of the Year

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. SO it is with the other first Signs. If you want springtime ahead of time, then you must have it in your heart, out of reach of the weather, just as you must grow cucumbers in a hothouse if you want them ahead of time. But there comes a day when cucumbers will grow out of doors and there comes a day when the bluebird and the song sparrow and all the other heralds stay, when spring has come whether you have a heart or not.
