Earth outward tuning on her path in space	A
This pensive southern face	A
Swathing its smile and shine	B
In that soft veil that day and darkness twine	B
The silver threaded twilight thin and fine	B
With April dews impearled	C
Looms like another and diviner world	C
	-
	-
Here April brings her garnered harvest sheaf	D
Her withered autumn leaf	D
Tintings of bronze and brass	E
Her full plumed reeds her mushroom in the grass	E
Her furrowed fields where plough and sower pass	E
Her laden apple bough	F
All are transfigured and transmuted now	F
	-
	-
The eastward ranges so unearthly blue	G
Bloom with their richest hue	G
Slowly each rose flushed crest	C
Deepens to violet where the shadows rest	C
Darkens and darkens to the paling west	C
The waning sun fires die	C
The first star swims in the pellucid sky	C
	-
	-
Soundless to listening ear on grass and flowers	H
The footfall of the hours	H
Formless and void to sight	C
The evolutions of invading night	C
The creeping onslaught and the gradual flight	C
Until the field is won	I
And we look forth to see that day is done	I
	-
	-
Then from their grave of darkness wood and lawn	J
Wake to a second dawn	J
From unseen wells below	K
The pearly moon tides rise and overflow	K
Till vale and peak and wide air spaces glow	K
In the transfiguring stream	L
And earth and life are but a heavenly dream	L
	-
	-
And now we hear the fairy echoes fall	M
Where distant curlews call	M
And how the silence thrills	N
With the night voices of the glens and hills	N
Rustling in reeds and tinkling in the rills	N
Bubbling in creek and pool	O
Where frogs are wooing in the shallows cool	O
	-
	-
And more than these in this delicious time	P
The melody sublime	P
That inward spirit hears	N
The faint and far off music of the spheres	N
Immortal harmonies too fine for ears	N
Dulled in the dusty ways	N
Deaf with the din of the laborious days	N
	-
	-
Whereto responsive as the vibrant wire	Q
Of some aeolian lyre	R
Fanned by celestial wings	N
The summoned soul in mystic concord brings	N
The deep notes latent in its trembling strings	N
Joining the choir divine	B
Of all the worlds that in the ether shine	B
	-
	-
O sacred hour O sweet night calm and fair	S
Thou dost rebuke despair	S
Thou dost assuage the pain	T
Of passionate spirit and distempered brain	T
And with thy balms distilled like gentle rain	T
Dost heal the fret and smart	C
And nerve the courage of this coward's heart	C
	-
	-
And lift me up a Moses on the Mount	C
To the pure source and fount	C
Of law transcending law	U
Of life that hallows life I know no more	V
Of life's great Giver than I knew before	V
But these His creatures tell	W
That He is living and that all is well	W
	-
	-
	-
Oh to be there to night	C
To see that rose of sunset flame and fade	C
On ghostly mountain height	C
The soft dusk gathering each leaf and blade	C
From the departing light	C
Each tree fern feather of the wildwood glade	C
	-
	-
From arid streets to pass	N
Down those green aisles where golden wattles bloom	X
Over the fragrant grass	N
And smell the eucalyptus in a gloom	X
That is as clear as glass	N
The dew fresh scents of bracken and of broom	X
	-
	-
	-
These city clamours mute	C
To hear the woodland necromancers play	Y
Each his enchanted lute	C
That dear bird laugh so exquisitely gay	Y
The magpie's silver flute	C
In vesper carol to the dying day	Y
	-
	-
To hear the live wind blow	K
The delicate stir and whisper of the trees	N
As light breaths come and go	K
The brooklet murmuring to the vagrant breeze	N
The bull frog twanging low	K
His deep toned mandolin to chime with these	N
	-
	-
And then the whispering rills	N
The hushed lone wheel or hoof or axeman's tool	O
The brooding dark that stills	N
The sweet Pan piping of the grove and pool	O
The dimly glimmering hills	N
The sleeping night so heavenly clean and cool	O
	-
	-
Oh for that mother breast	C
That takes the broken spirit for repair	S
The worn out brain for rest	C
That healing silence that untainted air	S
That Peace of God Blest blest	C
The very memory that I once was there	S
	-
	-
The thought that someday yet	C
In flesh not dreams I may return again	Z
And at those altars set	C
	-
	-
In the pure skies above the smoky plain	T
Remember and forget	C
The joy of living and its price of pain	T
	-
	-
That sullied earth reserves	N
Such spacious refuge virgin and apart	C
That wasting life preserves	N
Such sweet retreat for the distracted heart	C
Such fount of strength for nerves	N
Torn in the ruthless struggle of the mart	C
	-
	-
That Government divine	B
O'er all this reek of blunders and of woes	N
Keeps an unravaged shrine	B
Not here not there but in the souls of those	N
Who neither weep nor whine	B
But trust the guidance of the One Who Knows	N
