“Across the noisy street
I hear him careless throw
One warning utterance sweet;
Then faint at first, and low,
The full notes closer grow;
Hard, what a torrent gush!
They pour, they overflow--
Sing on, sing on, O thrush!”
Henry Austin Dobson Quotes Source: Ballad of the Thrush

But never a song that you have sung
Is half so sweet as thrushes sang
When my dear love and I were young.”

"Hush, hush!
Through the wood's full strains I hear
Thy monotone deep and clear,
Like a sound amid sounds most fine."”

“Sing, sweet thrushes, forth and sing!
Meet the moon upon the lea;
Are the emeralds of the spring
On the angler's trysting-tree?
Tell, sweet thrushes, tell to me,
Are there buds on our willow-tree?
Buds and birds on our trysting tree?”

As from a fountain sings in yonder bush
The Hermit Thrush.”

Come forth into the light of things,
Let Nature be your teacher.”
