For what can all sharp-rimmed substance but catchIn a backward ripple, God’s purpose, revealFor a moment His mighty direction, snatch  A spark beneath His wheel.
Since God sweeps onward dim and vast,Creating the channelled vein of ManAnd Leaf for His passage, His shadow is cast  On all for us to scan.
Ah listen, for Silence is not lonely:Imitate the magnificent treesThat speak no word of their rapture, but only  Breathe largely the luminous breeze.
