6 



Nature is the loon of life, 



To every one a guide, 

 To all those who nourish her. 



And in her bliss abide. 



Nature is the Master's look, 

 The companion of all our days. 



She illustrates His handiwork; 

 She showeth forth His praise. 



The blooming kingdom of the flowers, 

 The feathered minstrels of the air, 



All proclaim sweet peace and jo}^: 



All the contentment of nature declare.
