season (adv.)
At Christmas I no more desire a rose
Than wish a snow in May's new-fangled mirth;
But like of each thing that in season grows.
It faded on the crowing of the cock.
Some say that ever 'gainst that season comes
Wherein our Saviour's birth is celebrated,
The bird of dawning singeth all night long:
And then, they say, no spirit dares stir abroad;
The nights are wholesome; then no planets strike,
No fairy takes, nor witch hath power to charm,
So hallow'd and so gracious is the time.
It is a maxim universally agreed upon in agriculture, that nothing must be done too late; and again, that everything must be done at its proper season; while there is a third precept which reminds us that opportunities lost can never be regained.
I was promised on a time
To have reason for my rhyme;
From that time unto this season,
I received nor rhyme nor reason.
For May wol have no slogardie a-night.
The seson priketh every gentil herte,
And maketh him out of his slepe to sterte.
Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn cometh in in his season.
How many things by season season'd are
To their right praise and true perfection!
To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
When I have a convenient season, I will call for thee.
A word in season spoken
May calm the troubled breast.
A word spoken in due season, how good is it!
Season your admiration for a while.
