The New Spring and the New Harvest

Excerpt from The New Spring and the New Harvest: A Resumé of the Annals of the Tractarian Movement to 1882 The writer in the Homerton Magazine complains in querulous tones about the east Winds, and nipped foliage, and raw rains, and żowers pinched off by gales. Was be, we would wish to ask him, sanguine enough to expect that the New Spring would be altogether propitious, and that we should, at once, have real Italian weather in this cold, northern, changeable clime of ours - he should have recalled the words of Holy Writ, bidding us to think of the sower going forth to sow his seed In tears ere he reaps and gathers in the fruit of his harvest in joy.
