Nature
Glad Sight Wherever New with Old
From Poetical Works, ed. Knight (1896), vol. VIII
Nature
Glad sight wherever new with old
Is joined through some dear homeborn tie;
The life of all that we behold
Depends upon that mystery.
Vain is the glory of the sky,
The beauty vain of field and grove,
Unless, while with admiring eye
We gaze, we also learn to love.
