Excerpt from In the Valley of the Merrimack

The spirit sees the flowers of beauty, In this cold earth-land blossoming To light the shadowy path of duty, Till the celestial warblers sing Of the eternal spring.

Beauty, the web for poet's weaving, Heroic forms that joy can borrow, Visions of light, earth's woes retrieving, Nature's sweetest rest from sorrow Picturing a tranquil morrow.

Blue skies and sights of sunset splendor, Rainbows, the children of the light, When lightning clouds their darts surrender Above the violet mountains' height, Long ere the stars shine bright.

Flowers in the early spring-time growing, The rose of June, the lily's throne, The crystals from the Winter-snowing, The mosses in the forest growing These are not thine, alone!

The smiles of love, the tones of blessing, Compassion's tears that angels weep, And gentle Childhood's fond caressing, These make the tangled pathway free.
