WONDERS

What magic is in common grass

To bring this miracle to pass?

That within it one should find

Salves to give him peace of mind?

—It’s very queer that garden weed

Should minister to my soul’s need.

What fairy in the falling rain

Takes the robin’s small refrain,

And twists it to a tiny charm

To keep a tempted heart from harm?

—It puzzles me a wild bird’s song

Should save my soul from doing wrong.
