The multitudinous hiss  of leaves, oscillating in myriad,  to the rise and fall of Aeolian wind that breathes;  while from afar, O'Er hill and dale,  a-ringing carillon of bells a-swinging;  a sound, the amplitude of which  is as undulating as the rolling pastures.  The soft, occasional, interspersing chant  of monks, in Gregorian style, their mellow voice,  interweaving with the doppler'd monotone  of receding aircraft, homeward flying,  to where earth and sky do kiss;  to be absorbed into sonorous hiss  of leaves, oscillating.
