Behold, my friends, the spring has come! The earth has received the embraces of the sun, And we shall soon see the results of that love! Every seed is awakened and so has all animal life. It is through this mysterious power that we, too, have our being. And we, therefore, yield to our neighbors, even our animal neighbors, The same right as ourselves to inhabit this land.
