How few there are who know the pure delight	A
The chaste influence and the solace sweet	B
Of walking forth to see the glorious sight	A
When nature rises with respect to greet	B
The lord of day on his majestic seat	B
Like some great personage of high degree	C
Who cometh forth his subjects all to meet	B
Like him but yet more glorious far than he	C
He comes with splendor bright to shed o'er land and sea	C
	-
With stately slow and solemn march he comes	D
And gradually pours forth his brilliant rays	E
Unheralded by sounding brass or drums	D
His blazing glory on our planet plays	E
And sendeth healing light thro' darken'd ways	E
His undimm'd splendor maketh mortals quail	F
And e'en at times it fiercely strikes and slays	E
But then it brighteneth the cheek so pale	F
Revives the plant and loosens every nail	F
That fastens sorrow to the heart within this vale	F
	-
But 'tis the morning glory of the sun	G
I would request you now to view with me	C
'Twill cheer that smitten heart thou grieved one	G
And lighter make your load of misery	C
When you can hear and see all nature's glee	C
Come friend arise determin'd drowse no more	H
But stroll away to yonder hill with me	C
And all the landscape round we shall explore	H
All nature slumbers now its sleep will soon be o'er	I
	-
The stillness now is strange oppressive grand	J
The hush of death is now o'er all the earth	K
As if it slept by power of genius's hand	J
But soon the spell shall break and songs and mirth	K
And light shall all proclaim the morning's birth	K
E'en now behold the sun's advancing gleams	E
The heralds of his coming but the dearth	K
Of words forbid my telling how the streams	E
And dewy grass are glinting sparkling in the beams	E
	-
Or of the change so steady and so sure	L
That creeps upon creation all around	M
Unwaken'd yet from slumbers bright and pure	L
By atmospheric change or earthly sound	M
Such as at times awakes with sudden bound	M
	-
There comes a change o'er earth and trees and sky	N
And all creation's work wherever found	M
Save man for he with unawaken'd eye	N
In dozing slothful ease will yet for hours lie	N
	-
The grandest artificial sights will pall	O
Upon the taste and oft repeated tire	I
But each succeeding morn the monarch Sol	O
Bedecks the world with fresh and vig'rous fire	I
That cheers the fainting heart and sootheth ire	P
Each morn the gazer seeth something new	Q
And even what he saw will never tire	I
For in an aspect clear and fresh the view	Q
Will gladden still your eyes tho' oft it's gladden'd you	Q
	-
By slow degrees the heralds make their way	R
Until at last old Sol himself appears	E
To reign supreme thro' all the blessed day	R
As he hath reign'd for many thousand years	E
O'er joy and woe bright smiles and bitter tears	E
The very air is now astir with life	S
And all around unto our eyes and ears	E
Come evidences of a kindly strife	S
For fields and air and trees with bustling now are rife	S
	-
All animated nature seems to vie	N
Each with the other in their energy	C
Of preparation for the day's supply	N
Of work or play or whate'er else may be	C
Prompted for them to do instinctively	C
The grass is fill'd with buzzing insect throngs	E
There's music in the air and every tree	C
Is vocal with the wild bird's gladsome songs	E
Songs unrestrain'd by care or memory of wrongs	E
	-
A million tiny drops of crystal dew	Q
In shining splendor make the meadows fair	T
The leaves upon the trees are greener too	Q
As swaying in the gentle morning air	T
They are again prepar'd to stand the glare	T
Of Sol's meridian heat and give their shade	U
To myriads of feather'd songsters there	T
Our trip to see the sun arise is made	U
Let us retrace our steps and bravely share	T
Our portion of life's grief anxiety and care	T
