DEDICATION
TO A MOUNTAIN
TO thee�察�O father of the stately peaks��
Above me in the loftier light ´ to thee��
Imperial brother of those awful hills
Whose feet are set in splendid spheres of flame��
Whose heads are where the gods are�察�and whose sides
Of strength are belted round with all the zones
Of all the world�察�I dedicate these songs。
And if�察�within the compass of this book��
There lives and glows one verse in which there beats
The pulse of wind and torrent ´ if one line
Is here that like a running water sounds��
Page�此�4
And seems an echo from the lands of leaf��
Be sure that line is thine。 Here�察�in this home��
Away from men and books and all the schools��
I take thee for my Teacher。 In thy voice
Of deathless majesty�察�I�察�kneeling�察�hear
God's grand authentic Gospel� �Year by year��
The great sublime cantata of thy storm
Strikes through my spirit ´ fills it with a life
Of startling beauty� �Thou my Bible art��
With holy leaves of rock�察�and flower�察�and tree��
And moss�察�and shining runnel。 From each page
That helps to make thy awful volume�察�I
Have learned a noble lesson。 In the psalm
Of thy grave winds�察�and in the liturgy
Of singing waters�察�lo� �my soul has heard
The higher worship�察�and from thee�察�indeed��
The broad foundations of a finer hope
Were gathered in�察�and thou hast lifted up
The blind horizon for a larger faith��
Moreover�察�walking in exalted woods
Page�此�5
Of naked glory�察�in the green and gold
Of forest sunshine�察�I have paused like one
With all the life transfigured�察�and a flood
Of light ineffable has made me feel
As felt the grand old prophets caught away
By flames of inspiration�察�but the words
Sufficient for the story of my Dream
Are far too splendid for poor human lips。
But thou�察�to whom I turn with reverent eyes ´
O stately Father�察�whose majestic face
Shines far above the zone of wind and cloud��
Where high dominion of the morning is ´
Thou hast the Song complete of which my songs
Are pallid adumbrations� �Certain sounds
Of strong authentic sorrow in this book
May have the sob of upland torrents ´ these��
And only these�察�may touch the great World's heart��
For�察�lo� �they are the issues of that grief
Which makes a man more human�察�and his life
More like that frank�察�exalted life of thine。
Page�此�6
But in these pages there are other tones
In which thy large�察�superior voice is not ´
Through which no beauty that resembles thine
Has ever shone。 These are the broken words
Of blind occasions�察�when the World has come
Between me and my Dream。 No song is here
Of mighty compass�察�for my singing robes
I've worn in stolen moments。 All my days
Have been the days of a laborious life��
And ever on my struggling soul has burned
The fierce heat of this hurried sphere。 But thou��
To whose fair majesty I dedicate
My book of rhymes ´ thou hast the perfect rest
Which makes the heaven of the highest gods��
To thee the noises of this violent time
Are far�察�fai
