Religion

Natural Religion

by Richard Le Gallienne 1866–1947

From Robert Louis Stevenson: An Elegy, and Other Poems (1895)

Religion

Up through the mystic deeps of sunny air
I cried to God--'O Father, art Thou there?'
Sudden the answer, like a flute, I heard:
It was an angel, though it seemed a bird.
