The Higher Brotherhood.

Topics: classic

To come in touch with mysteries     Of beauty idealizing Earth,     Go seek the hills, grown old with trees,     The old hills wise with death and birth.     There you may hear the heart that beats     In streams, where music has its source;     And in wild rocks of green retreats     Behold the silent soul of force.     Above the love that emanates     From human passion, and reflects     The flesh, must be the love that waits     On Nature, whose high call elects     None to her secrets save the few     Who hold that facts are far less real     Than dreams, with which all facts indue     Themselves approaching the Ideal.
