by Unknown

The cheerful Sabbath bells, wherever heard,

Strike pleasant on the sense, most like the voice

Of one who from the far off hills proclaims

Tidings of good to Zion.

Charles Lamb.

The Sabbath bell,

That over wood, and wild, and mountain-dell

Wanders so far, chasing all thoughts unholy

With sounds most musical, most melancholy.

Samuel Rogers.
