Excerpt from Franklin Square Song Collection, Vol. 5: Two Hundred Favorite Songs and Hymns for Schools and Homes, Nursery and Fireside

Gladness can scarcely be a solitary thing; the very life of praise seems choral; it is more than one bounded heart can utter. Its finest expressions are those that, in the Psalms and some ancient canticles, call on Nature, even that which is not conscious and animate, to swell the harmony: O ye Showers and Dew, praise ye the Lord! Once, even in Music, I was content with melody; a tune, with its sweetness, like that of a tinkling rill, was enough to gladden me now my heart asks for a deeper spell. Surely when one has once entered into the blissful secrets of harmony, the note seems to suggest the chord, to ask to be built up within ih - Two Friends.
