The black ducks mounting from the lake, The pigeon in the pines, The bittern's boom, a desert makeWhich no false art refines.
Down in yon watery nook, Where bearded mists divide, The gray old gods whom Chaos knew, The sires of Nature, hide.
Aloft, in secret veins of air, Blows the sweet breath of song, O, few to scale those uplands dare, Though they to all belong!
See thou bring not to field or stoneThe fancies found in books;Leave authors' eyes, and fetch your own, To brave the landscape's loo
...ks.
Oblivion here thy wisdom is, Thy thrift, the sleep of cares;For a proud idleness like thisCrowns all thy mean affairs.
Ralph Waldo Emerson [1803-1882] "WHEN IN THE WOODS I WANDER ALL ALONE" When in the woods I wander all alone, The woods that are my solace and delight, Which I more covet than a prince's throne, My toil by day and canopy by night;(Light heart, light foot, light food, and slumber light, These lights shall light us to old age's gate, While monarchs, whom rebellious dreams affright, Heavy with fear, death's fearful summons wait;)Whilst here I wander, pleased to be alone, Weighing in thought the worlds no-happiness, I cannot choose but wonder at its moan, Since so plain joys the woody life can bless:Then live who may where honied words prevail, I with the deer, and with the nightingale!
