Beauteous Nature

Beauteous scene of scented spring
Farthest from the world of men
In the sacred breath of woodland
Singth therest lark and wren

Shades of beeches, pines and birches
With the shades of Autumn mingle
As in hut a silent damsel
Cooks and embers shine in ingle

Cuckoos, beetles, fish and cricket
Look at wondrous lake and murmur
God hath sent for us a mirror
In the nature holy bower
Therest heaven's morn and sunset
Dewy gems on earth they shower

Tender wind it singth on timbral
Leaves in it afloat and dance
Hearst thou the flute of Shepherds
By the magic hands of chance

Nymphs and deities therest Rowan
In the eve in afternoon
Row therest in lake of woodland 
Lady of the haunted moon

Beauteous art the hearts that ever
Worship in the nature yard
On the sedge on mossy velvet
In the temp of Holy Lord
