All is not pain, their eyes declare;

The shoreward ripples are their voice,

The sunset, streaming through their hair,

Coils round me in a fiery flood,

And all the sounds of that rich air

Are in the beating of my blood,

Crying: Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice!

Rejoice, because such skies are blue,

Each dawn, above a world so fair,

Because such glories still renew
