Unspoken words may thrill the heartA
Their meaning be more deeply feltB
Than all the glowing oratoryC
Poured at the shrine where reason kneltB
The fairest pictures art conceivesD
The noblest sentiments of mindE
The loveliest purest gems of thoughtF
Are those which never are definedE
-
The hand that paints the rainbow dyesD
Ne'er leaves a trace its skill to showG
The art that gilds the sunset skiesD
And tints the flower we may not knowG
Nor may we know the wizard powerH
Which o'er our being wields controlI
Nor how when silence seals the lipsD
Heart speaks to heart and soul to soulI
-
We do not know from whence the lifeJ
Imbued in crystal drop of rainK
Nor why when torn and trampled onL
The rose's fragrance will remainK
Nor know we why the tender toneM
Will linger when love's dream is fledN
Now why the smile we loved will liveO
Although the face it wreathed will be deadN
-
Some strangely fascinating spellP
Steals o'er the heart in ethic's hourH
We know not what nor how nor whyQ
Still must we own we feel its powerH
A power that wakens slumbering dreamsD
Intangible emotion swellsD
That penetrates the soul's deep fountN
And greets the tide that from it wellsD
-
It is not charm of form or faceD
Nor is it long contact of yearsD
That wins this mutual soul responseD
This spirit sympathy endearsD
A theory by time engravedN
Fro life one mad impulse may sweepR
A glance may into being startN
Vain hopes that nevermore may sleepR
-
The quiet touch when hands are claspedN
Would seemingly no sense impartN
Yet may it wake a deathless themeS
And send it quivering to the heartN
And thus may kindred spirits feelT
Though tone of voice be never heardN
The sweet impassioned eloquenceD
The magic of unspoken wordsD
