The secret strength of things, Which governs thought, and to the infinite dome Of heaven is a law, inhabits thee! And what were thou, and earth, and stars, and sea, If to the human mind's imaginings Silence and solitude were vacancy?
how strange this silence would seem without these crickets here to explain
firs through a quarter-mile mist as if bliss is all that stands between us
