The little valleys on their sides are Fnll Of whisp'ring birds and streams 3 the rustling leaves Feel the cool breath that they had waited for The whole receding day. And, underneath, The grass with jewel-mocking dew is laid, Which soon beneath the rays of heaven's sun Shall vanish, not to reappear again Till rides the god into the west to hide His light. And, wand'rers thro' the night, we feel The solemn hush that just precedes the day,-M The silence under whose calm touch the whole Of this fair land is soothed from haunting pain And Weariness. Now bird and beast and man, The streams, and e'en the leaves, do seem to wait, Wait for the rosy glow, the sign well-known, Of yet another day. Faint li11es appear, Far east, as if the hills had now been crown'd With diadems, the tribute of the day To the grim warders of Aurora's fire. The shades below them, which until this hour , Had seemed so deep, still deeper plunge, as if To make a strong imprint upon earth And rocks that all around are spread. 'Tall trees Appear to stretch their mighty trunks above The tops of peaks, which loom so black and strong And massive 'gainst the ever whit'ning sky, That they seem jealous of the light behind. A call, so shrill and so distinct, that well , It might be said to cut the very air, Sounds from the lake, as some wild bird prepares To undertake his happy life again. Q V A That call, so meaningless to mortal ears, Tells Nature what our- eyes no longer doubt:- The day is here l , What magic wand hath changed This picture, that we see not now the same T Dark hues of brown and blue and green, ibut gold,- Bright gold, the color which the sun did place Upon his banners at the time when first He spread them to the watching world beneath? Why does the far-off bay, so calm before, Change all its dusky sheen for purest fire, Stirred by the hurrying breeze to little swells Of reddish gold, that fascinate our gaze? And why does all about us seem to stir,-- To move,-to wake from a long, restful sleep? Why do we ask,-all Nature answers us : Why? It is Morning on the Berkeley hills I
