THE BATTALION Page 9 WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1976 To him who in the love of nature holds Communion with her visible forms, she speaks A various language; for his gayer hours She has a voice of gladness, and a smile And eloquence of beauty; and she glides Into his darker musings, with a mild And healing sympathy that steals away Their sharpness ere he is aware. When thoughts Of the last bitter hour come like a blight Over thy spirit, and sad images Of the stern agony, and shroud, and pall. And breathless darkness, and the narrow house. Make thee to shudder, and grow sick at heart;— Go forth, under the open sky, and list To Nature's teachings, ivhile from all around— Earth and her waters, and the depths of air— Comes a still voice .
