Quotes
We plough the fields, and scatter The good seed on the land; But it is fed and watered By God's almighty hand: He sends the snow in winter, The warmth to swell the grain, The breezes and the sunshine, And soft refreshing rain.
"We Plough the Fields and Scatter", st. 1. Garland of Songs (1861)
Translated from the German of Matthias Claudius, Wir pflügen und wir streuen
