"The Call of the Wild"

How loudly calls the wilderness,
There's many a man can tell,
Though In a city's busy life,
For long years he may dwell,
But in his heart, so sweet and clear
He hears the restless sea,
Or feels the forest atmosphere,
Forever wild and free.
Beyond the touch of counting house,
Beyond the clink OF gold.
The wilderness stiI calls him home,
Her beauty to unfold.
