Thou eye of men l The sages find Ilike only Son, the father's help and joy, My God filled with Thy glorious Majesty My silent teachers ye |-nor sound, nor speech,O Ant, so small and shapely, O CLOUD ! O dark-hued CLOUD wash ocean's child ! O Earth : for aye thou dost endure; Of all the aids to virtue God has given O FLOWER, fair FLOWER, whose tender leaves expand 1 O HARMONY | Thou name of pure delight ! C Leafy GLADE, with fragrant verdure spread the lake, O LOVE divine ! thou ever beauteous LOVE O LUST, thou scorching flame, whose smoky cloud O Silver lily on the heaven's blue lake, O Sleep ! Thou solace sweet of human-kind !
