This guest of summer, The temple-haunting martlet, doth approve By his loved mansionry that the heaven's breath Smells wooingly here; no jutty, frieze, Buttress, or coigne of vantage, but this bird Hath made his pendent bed and procreant cradle." The contrast here cannot but be as intentional as it is marked. Every image is one of welcome, security, and confidence.
Robert Pitt, son of Diamond Tom, escaped all censure and unkind criticism by doing nothing, saying nothing and being nothing. But he proved procreant and reared a goodly brood of sons and daughters all much like himself, save one, the youngest son. This son, by name William Pitt, very much resembled Diamond Tom, his illustrious grandfather Nature bred back.
In like manner some principle or force that we do not see is active in the ground underfoot and in the forms of life about us which is the final secret of the origin of man and of all other creatures. This something is the evolutionary impulse, this innate aspiration of living matter to reach higher and higher forms. "Urge and urge," says Whitman, "always the procreant urge of the world."
The poet must hasten on, he must infold and bind together, he must be direct and synthetic in every act. Reflection and qualification are not for him, but action, emotion, volition, the procreant blending and surrender. He works as Nature does, and gives us reality in every line. Whitman says: "I charge you forever reject those who would expound me, for I cannot expound myself."
Here they are safe from most of the prowlers that find the more exposed nests of many other birds. She deposits five to eight eggs of a white or creamy-white ground-color, speckled with rufous and lavender. During the season of incubation and brood rearing the nuthatches retire to the depth of the woods, and are quiet, secretive, and unsocial, seldom betraying their procreant secrets.
It is one with spirit, and is incessant creation; the whole organic world is filled, from bottom to top, with one tremendous effort. It was long ago felicitously stated by Whitman in his "Leaves of Grass," "Urge and urge, always the procreant urge of the world."
'Look they are getting a home together. 'I won't aid abet them in it, he said petulantly, instantly sympathising with the aloof, furtive youth, against the active, procreant female. 'Oh yes, cried Ursula. 'It's right for them there's nothing else for them. 'Very well, said Birkin, 'you offer it to them. I'll watch.
But this "procreant cradle" of a bird in the arms of the fanged desert growth softens its aspect a little. The tree of forbidden fruit the Tree of Knowledge how copiously has mankind eaten of it during these latter generations! and the chaotic state of the world to-day is the result. We have been forcing Nature's hand on a tremendous scale.
In both of these purely arbitrary groups, however, the aerial habits and manner of feeding poised in the air are identical, although the birds living in shady forests, where flowers are scarce, obtain their food principally from the under surfaces of leaves. In their procreant habits the uniformity is also very great.
The smell of new-plowed fields is his, with the urgent promise in them. Seed time and harvest, as old as the procreant earth and as new as the latest sunrise, are his to conjure. The verities are his for the asking, the strong things of cultivated fields and of wild places. And mastery is his, that comes of the amelioration of the land and the education of the tree.
