SUNSETTHOUGHT.
The Sun is burning with intensest LightBehind yon Grove; and in the golden Glow
Of unconsuming Fire, it doth show,
Like to the Bush, in which to Moses' Sight
The Lord appeared! and oh! am I not right
In thinking that He reappears eén now
To me, in the old Glory, and I bow
My Head, in wonder hushed, before his Might!
Yea! this whole world so vast, to Faiths' clear Eye,
Is but that burning Bush, full of his Power,
His Light, and Glory; not consumed thereby,
But made transparent; till in each least Flower!
Yea! in each smallest Leaf, she can descry,
His Spirit shining thrò it visibly!
