Aruid the cool and silence, he knelt

And offe-ed to the Mightiest solemn

Ar.d supplications. Let me. then, at

Here in the shadow of this aged wood.
Offer one hymn—thrice happy, if it

Acceptance in his ear.
Father, thy hand
Hath reared these venerable columns;
thou
Didst weave this verdant roof. Thou
didst look down
Vpon the naked earth, and forthwith,
rose
Ail these fair ranks of tree*. They In
thy sun
Budded and shook their green leaves
in the breeze.
And shot heavenward. The century-llv

Whose birth was In the topa, grew i

Among their branches,—till, at last,
they stood.
As now they stand, massy, and tall,
