LATET ANGVIS
AH! full of purest influence
On human mind and mood,
Of holiest joy to human sense
Are river, field and wood;
And better must all childhood be
That knows a garden and a tree.
On human mind and mood,
Of holiest joy to human sense
Are river, field and wood;
And better must all childhood be
That knows a garden and a tree.
For where can one diviner gleam
On leagues of houses lie?
And what of Heaven can childhood dream
That scarce has seen the sky?
Yet sin and sorrow's pedigree
Spring from a Garden and a Tree.
On leagues of houses lie?
And what of Heaven can childhood dream
That scarce has seen the sky?
Yet sin and sorrow's pedigree
Spring from a Garden and a Tree.
