17年一次的盛况,4月中旬就要开始了,住在CT, MD, NC, NJ, NY, PA and VA的注意了
,观虫的观鸟的,种树的都要做好准备,这次来的broodII据说是15个brood最大的一个。

Abhorred spot! I expected no peace—no pleasure there. On a stile in Hay

And make the earth devour her own sweet brood;
Pluck the keen teeth from the fierce tiger's jaws,
And burn the long-liv'd phoenix in her blood;
Make glad and sorry seasons as thou fleets,
And do whate'er thou wilt, swift-footed Time,
To the wide world and all her fading sweets;
But I forbid thee one most heinous crime:

Nor draw no lines there with thine antique pen;

Silver spider,
Brooding
On the blue wall of the infinite,
What passion makes you pale?
You have caught the stars
In your web of moonbeams.
You have sucked from them
Their vibrant scintillations.
Now they hang enmeshed,
Cosmic gnats,
Bloodless,
Still trembling a little.
What passion makes you pale?
The sea loves you.
She has hushed
All the dancing waves to sleep |

And all her lovely things even lovelier grow;
Her flowers in vision flame, her forest trees
Lift burdened branches, stilled with ecstasies.

Naiads whose beauty dims my waking eyes,
Rapt in strange dreams burns each enchanted face,
With solemn echoing stirs their dwelling-place.
