, ,, , ^ John Keble.
The Mountain Languag-e CI LENT to watch great rivers at their rise, And downward track them to the murmuring deep ; The sunlit storm to follow as it flies, Broken through purple glens ; in lingering sweep To hear the forest sigh, the torrent leap ; — These things, great Nature's tragic agonies. What lesson teach they which the soul should prize As precious, and the memoiy strive to keep?
60 ' Lift up your hearts ! ' O strange and mystic words ! Sounds truly cucharistic ! — ...Nothing mean Is heard in them, or common, or unclean. This is the mountain language. Sense affords An instrumental medium : but the Spirit Draws near in faith ; and God, that liour, is near it!
Audrey de I'ere.
Sunrise on Mont Blanc 'HP HE grand silence of earth and skies, just broken by the faint twitter of awakening life — the pure freshness that breathes over the yet untainted world - the exquisite purple of the eastern hills edged with a silvery rim of light, deepening into broader and more lustrous gold — the pale, cold grey of receding night, where moon and stars still beautiful are dimly vanishing— the rich, in- fluent tide of day, so different from the melting softness of its ebbing hues, that is reflected every moment with increasing sharpness from the objects over which it rolls, and that lights up as with the joyousness of hope into boundless brilliancy the dewj^ womb of morning — these effects, so rapid in their succession and so glorious, so like a new creation — take us back to the beginning of time, and transport us to the Eden of our first parents, and make us feel, like them, in the presence of these sublime transitions of unchanging nature, that the Spirit of the Living God is around us.
