Iim the Xcv-Engltiml Weekly Rccieir WOH SHIP "The air Js rhriou. ivirh the sfiirit-march Of messengers cf firayer." There is a solemn hymn goes up From nature to the Lord above. And ofE-rint; from her incense-cup Are poured in gratitude and loe ; And from each flower that lifts its eye In modest silence in the siiidc To the strong woods that k:ss the sky A thankful song of praise is mad-. There is no solitude on earth "In every leaf there is a tongue" In every glen A voice of mirth From every hill a hymn is sur-g ; And every wild and hidden dell.

Where human footsteps nev er trod, Is wafting songs of joy, which tell The praises of their maker God. Eeach mountain gives an altar birth. And has a shrine to worship ghen, Eeach breeze that rises from the earth Is loaded with a songcf heaven ; Each wave that leaps along the main Sends solemn music on the air, And winds that o'er ocean's plain Bear off their voice of grattful prayer. When Night's dark wings arr slowly furled And clouds roll off the orient sky, And sun light bursts upon the world, Like angel's pinions Hashing by, A matin hymn unheard will rise From eery ftawcr, and hill, and tree, And song of joy float up the skies, Like holy anthems from the sea. When sun-!igit dies, and shadows fall. And Twilight plumes her rosy wing, Dei ntion's breath lifts Music's pall. And silvery voices seem toeing. And when the earth falls sett to rest, And young wind's pinions seem to tire, Then the pure streams upon its breast Join their glad sound with nature's lyre. And when the sky that bends above Is lighted up with spirit fires, A gladdening song of praise and love Is pealing from the sky -tuned lyres, An l every star that throws its light Fr mi off t cation's bending bow, Is offe ring on the shrine of Night The same unchanging subject-vow. Thus earth's a temple vast and fair Filled with the glorious works of love, When earth and sky and sea and air, Join in the praise of God above ; And still through countless coming years Unwearied songs of praise shall roll On plumes of love to him who hears The softest strain in Music's soul.
