    In “Harry Ploughman,” Gerard Manley Hopkins describes an agrarian laborer in nautical terms to illustrate how work itself becomes a propeller for life’s voyage. The dynamics of sound due to the sonnet’s rhythm, syntax, and structure imitate the atmosphere and movements of both farmer and ship. By echoing images from “The Wreck of the Deutschland,” Hopkins points to the crucial roles of conscience and grace for guiding action, but not only toward material results. More importantly, they direct the worker toward selfless integrity and conviction, toward greater fullness of being. Hopkins’s polysemous portrayal alludes to the expertise needed for navigating challenges on land, at sea, and in verse. Hopkins’s mastery, like that of all workers who proceed with intensity in response to divine promptings or “stress,” serves as a vehicle for conducting souls to their eternal harbor. The sonnet’s maritime associations, as well as the multivalence of its eye, breath, and child images resonate in Hopkins’s spiritual writings and thereby highlight the vocational aspect of human labor.

    Now virtually unknown, Anne Pratt (1806–1893) remains an important Victorian illustrator, naturalist, and popularizer of science, whose Wild Flowers (1852) made a strong impression on Queen Victoria. While Pratt’s works addressed a largely female audience, their generic appeal, reflecting her profound botanical knowledge and astute insights into flower study, had an ever broader reach into the general public. Pratt authored over twenty books, among them Chapters on the Common Things of the Sea-Side (1850), which saw four editions in ten years. Hopkins was given a second edition as a gift for his tenth birthday. Though he nowhere acknowledges Pratt but for an obscure reference in a letter to his mother, a precocious Hopkins would have found in Chapters the keen attention to nature he would later observe in Ruskin. Pratt’s study would have been an important precursor for Hopkins’s detailed observations of nature in his journals, diaries, and notebooks. Especially pronounced are their attempts to connect the beauty in nature to a benevolent Creator and a natural theology in which everything in nature, to use a Hopkins expression, “speaks and spells” Christ. In their theology of the aesthetics, the divine plays in “ten thousand places.”

    Hopkins’s environmental poem “Ribblesdale” (1882) shows his creative processes as it celebrates nature and language. It even visualizes God the Father creating the world as a fisherman casting his line and making the River Ribble flow through Lancashire—a river beautiful at Hopkins’s Stonyhurst College, but downriver, treeless and grassless, polluted and surrounded by factories. As a child and young man, Hopkins loved nature, later cherishing even nature’s shapes and selfhood and celebrating nature in his poems. But he grieved for the environment, presenting the earth as a huge nest on which a very large Holy Ghost still sits, warming and protecting her earth-egg. Hopkins mourns earth’s loss of trees and grass, of a clear sky, of “a rural scene,” even of “the weeds and the wilderness.” And Christ, as a human, was implicated in this loss, and as human was just a “Jack, joke, poor potsherd, patch, matchwood.” Yet, as Trinitarian God, he is an “immortal diamond” and, grandly, offers and shares this bright sparkling life with his fellow humans. Such is Gerard Manley Hopkins, lover of God and God’s earth—and grieving environmentalist poet.
