Excerpt from Australian Idylls and Other Poems: A Collection of Verse and Prose Sketches

When slips the sun into the sea, And laughing sunbeams sink to rest, When silence broods all tranquilly, And the last gleam fades in the west.

When dew-dropped blossoms droop to sleep, And a faint zephyr stirs the air, And peace as sentinel doth keep Its vigil, thrusting back dull care.

The little stream seems silent, too, For though it sings its music low, Is gentle as the dove's sweet coo, As o'er the stones its waters flow.

And on the mountain's crest the birds Are drowsy at the close of day, And silent are the lowing herds The bustling world seems far away.
