Reading in the Farm Home 



1089 



" And he wandered away and away, with Nature the dear old nurse, 

 Who sang to him night and day, the rhymes of the universe. 

 And when the way seemed long, and his heart began to fail. 

 She sang a more wonderful song, or told a more wonderful tale." 



Longfellow's poem to Agassiz.
