Simply the best, the Apioro! So, you see, I'm for the ruling of the best, and you The ruling of the mass, the crowd, the mob.
Ah! from that hurrying, jostling, noisy world, With all its clamorous celfishness and strife, Its low mean passions and coarse rivalries, Its base hypocrisies and lying craft,
How gladly even the worldliest of the crowd At times would shake the dust from off his feet And fling himself on Nature's breast to feel The sweetness of her silent colitudes !
There, far from men, forgetful of the world, In perfect peaco, what joy it is to lie
Stretched out beneath come broad and shadowy tree And let the spirit wander as it will
Into the realm of dreams! Now gazing up To watch the great white continents of clouds Sail slowly drifting through the azure gulfs Of the unfathomed sky; now with shut eyes Listening the cock's faint crow from far-off farms; Or, nearer, the swcot jargoning of birds
In the green branches hid,-while, fresh and pure And fragrant with the breath of flowers, the breeze Comco stealing o'er the fields to fan the brow, Or, sifting through the trees with whisperings soft, Sets all the quivering leaves astir, and not The leaves alone, but many a memory dim Of youthful years, and many a tender thought, And many a gentle dream and vanished voice, That on the bustle of the busy world
No more are heard, and yet are dear and sweet Beyond all telling to the heart of man.
Ah! here, my friend, in the dim woods, alone, Listening and dreaming, you perchance may hear Far down within your heart a still small voice That is not of the People-but of God!
