Glory be to God for dappled things–
for skies of couple-color as a brinded cow;
for rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim;
fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches' wings;
landscape plotted and pierced – fold, fallow and plough;

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.

Pied Beauty, Gerard Manley Hopkins, 1844-89   
from Poems, 1918
