gideon wagner - admonition to a traveller lyrics

Loading...

yes, there is holy pleasure in thine eye!
+ the lovely cottage in the guardian nook
hath stirred thee deeply; with its own dear brook
its own small pasture, almost its own sky!

but covet not the abode +o do not sigh
as many do, repining while they look;
intruders who would tear from nature’s book
this precious leaf with harsh impiety:

+ think what the home would be if it were thine
even thine, though few thy wants! +roof, window, door
the very flowers are sacred to the poor

the roses to the porch which they entwine:
yea, all that now enchants thee, from the day
on which it should be touched would melt away!
