SONG FROM “PIPPA PASSES.” BY ROBERT BROWNING.
Reading edition
Robert Browning was born at Camberwell in 1812. He was educated at the London University. While his wife lived Browning spent most of his time in Florence—later he divided his time between London and Venice. He died at Venice in 1889. His poems have been collected into several volumes under the titles of “Men and Women,” “Dramatis Personae,” “The Ring and the Book,” “Dramatic Idylls,” and “Sordello.”
The year’s at the spring, And day’s at the morn; Morning’s at seven; The hillside’s dew-pearled. The lark’s on the wing; The snail’s on the thorn; God’s in his heaven— All’s right with the world!
