Idylls and Lyrics (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from Idylls and Lyrics

Thou shalt cause the trumpet of the jubilee to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month; in the day of the atonement shall the trumpet sound throughout all your land. -levit. Xxv. 9.

How soft the music of these village bells, Falling at intervals upon the ear In cadence sweet.-cowper.

They Sing the lays Of golden days, But sweetest tongue could never Tell half the bliss Of a day like this, Although it sung For ever. The green earth breathes its hymns of praise, And fragrance through the air; And the day is as fair as the golden days, Of the times that never were.
