- 0:00Speaker 1: Psalm of the day, a something in a summer's day,
- 0:04Speaker 1: as slow her flambeau burn away, which solemnizes me. A
- 0:09Speaker 1: something in a summer's noon, an azure depth, a wordless tune,
- 0:14Speaker 1: transcending ecstasy. And still within a summer's night, a something
- 0:19Speaker 1: so transporting bright, I clap my hands to see. Then
- 0:24Speaker 1: veil my too-inspecting face, lest such a subtle, shimmering grace
- 0:29Speaker 1: flutter too far for me. The wizard fingers never rest.
- 0:33Speaker 1: The purple brook within the breast still chafes its narrow bed.
- 0:38Speaker 1: Still rears the east her amber flag. Guides still the
- 0:42Speaker 1: sun along the crag, his caravan of red. Like flowers
- 0:46Speaker 1: that heard the tale of dews, but never deemed the
- 0:49Speaker 1: dripping cries awaited their low brows. Or bees that thought
- 0:53Speaker 1: the summer's name some rumor of delirium no summer could
- 0:57Speaker 1: for them. Or arctic creature dimly stirred by tropic hint,
- 1:02Speaker 1: some traveled bird imported to the wood. Or wind's bright
- 1:06Speaker 1: signal to the ear, making that homely and severe, contented,
- 1:11Speaker 1: known before. The heaven unexpected came, to lives that thought
- 1:16Speaker 1: their worshiping a too presumptuous song.
