    By the Sea

    It is a beauteous evening, calm and free;
    The holy time is quiet as a nun
    Breathless with adoration; the broad sun
    Is sinking down in its tranquillity;

    The gentleness of heaven is on the sea:
    Listen! the mighty Being is awake,
    And doth with his eternal motion make
    A sound like thunder -everlastingly.

    Dear child! dear girl! that walkest with me here,
    If thou appear untouched by solemn thought
    Thy nature is not therefore less divine:

    Thou liest in Abraham's bosom all the year,
    And worshipp'st at the Temple's inner shrine,
    God being with thee when we know it not.
