Pack, clouds, away! and welcome, day!
With night we banish sorrow.
Sweet air, blow soft; mount, lark, aloft
To give my Love good-morrow!
Wings from the wind to please her mind,
Notes from the lark I'll borrow:
Bird, prune thy wing! nightingale, sing!Thomas Heywood
'Poverty's no disgrace, but 'tis a great inconvenience' was a common saying among the Lark Rise peole. — (ch. 1, Poor People's Houses)

Yep, same again. Saw a few nice whirling colours and things. That's it. Easy, this journal lark, isn't it?Jonathan Stroud
There was a jolly miller once,
Lived on the river Dee;
He worked and sung from morn till night:
No lark more blithe than he.Isaac Bickerstaffe
The corn was springing fresh and green,
And the lark sang loud and high,
And the red was on your lip, Mary,
And the love-light in your eye.Helen Blackwood
