• God gave us mother earth full blest 

 * With robes of {freen in healthful fold; 

 We tore the green robes from her breast ! ^ 

 We sold our mother's robes for gold ! , 



We sold her garments fair, and she 

 Lies shamed and weeping at our feet. ^ 



In penitence we plant a tree; 

 We plant the tree and count it meet." 



— Joaquin Miij.er.
