Of whispering trees the tongues to hear	A
And sermons of the silent stone	B
To read in brooks the print so clear	C
Of motion shadowy light and tone	B
That man hath neither eye nor ear	A
Who careth not for human moan	B
	-
Yea he who draws in shrinking haste	D
From sin that passeth helpless by	E
The weak antennae of whose taste	D
From touch of alien grossness fly	E
Shall banished to the outer waste	D
Never in Nature's bosom lie	E
	-
But he whose heart is full of grace	F
To his own kindred all about	G
Shall find in lowest human face	F
Blasted with wrong and dull with doubt	G
More than in Nature's holiest place	F
Where mountains dwell and streams run out	G
	-
Coarse cries of strife assailed my ear	A
In suburb ways one summer morn	H
A wretched alley I drew near	C
Whence on the air the sounds were borne	H
Growls breaking into curses clear	C
And shrill retorts of keener scorn	H
	-
Slow from its narrow entrance came	I
His senses drowned with revels dire	J
Scarce fit to answer to his name	I
A man unconscious save of ire	J
Fierce flashes of dull fitful flame	I
Broke from the embers of his fire	K
	-
He cast a glance of stupid hate	L
Behind him every step he took	M
Where followed him like following fate	L
An aged crone with bloated look	M
A something checked his listless gait	L
She neared him rating till she shook	M
	-
Why stood he still to be disgraced	D
What hindered Lost in his employ	N
His eager head high as his waist	D
Half buttressed him a tiny boy	N
An earnest child ill clothed pale faced	D
Whose eyes held neither hope nor joy	N
	-
Perhaps you think he pushed and pled	O
For one poor coin to keep the peace	P
With hunger or home would have led	O
And given him up to sleep's release	P
Well he might know the good of bed	O
To make the drunken fever cease	P
	-
Not so like unfledged hungry bird	Q
He stood on tiptoe reaching higher	K
But no expostulating word	Q
Did in his anxious soul aspire	J
With humbler care his heart was stirred	Q
With humbler service to his sire	K
	-
He sleepless pale and wrathful red	O
Though forward leaning held his foot	R
Lest on the darling he should tread	O
A misty sense had taken root	S
Somewhere in his bewildered head	O
That round him kindness hovered mute	S
	-
The words his simmering rage did spill	T
Passed o'er the child like breeze o'er corn	H
Safer than bee whose dodging skill	T
And myriad eyes the hail shower scorn	H
The boy absorbed in loving will	T
Buttoned his father's waistcoat worn	H
	-
Over his calm unconscious face	F
No motion passed no change of mood	U
Still as a pool in its own place	F
Unsunned within a thick leaved wood	V
It kept its quiet shadowy grace	F
As round it all things had been good	V
	-
Was the boy deaf the tender palm	W
Of him that made him folded round	X
The little head to keep it calm	W
With a hitherto to every sound	X
And so nor curse nor shout nor psalm	Y
Could thrill the globe thus grandly bound	X
	-
Or came in force the happy law	Z
That customed things themselves erase	F
Or was he too intent for awe	A2
Did love take all the thinking place	F
I cannot tell I only saw	Z
An earnest fearless hopeless face	F
