Not all alone! for thou canst hold
Communion sweet with saint and sage,
And gather gems Of price untold,
From many pure untraveiled page;
Youths dreams, the golden lights of age,
The poets love, are still thine own:
Then, while such themes thy tho'ts engage
( Oh how canst thou be all alone!
Not all alone; the whispering trees,
Tie ripping brook, the starry sky =
Have each peculiar harmonies.
To soothe, subdue, and sanctify:
The low sweet breath of evenings sigh,
For thee, hath oft friendly tone,
To lit thy grateful thoughts on high,
To say-,hou art not all alone.
Not all alone; a watchfnl eye,
That notes the wandering sparrow's fall,
A saving hand is ever nigh,
gracious Power attends thy call:
When sadness holds thy heart in thrall,
Is Oft his tenderest mercy shown
Seek then the balm vouchsafed to all.
And thou cans; never be alone.
