Par terre et sur les toits!
Pour un coeur qui s'ennuie
O le chant de la pluie!
'Mong men ever more and more;
They came, and they saw, and uprooted
Its life from the cottage door.
And the bruit de diable are all combined;
How happy Bouillaud would be,
If he a case like this could find!
Crow's-feet copy veining on a stained leaf;
Cold squint steals sky's color; while bruit
Of bells calls holy ones, her tongue
Backtalks at the raven
driven,
Back from the fulgent justle and press * with mighty echoing so was
given,
As when the surly thunder smites * upon the clanged gates of Heaven.
The bruit of a once familiar name;
How among the Dutch of New Netherlands,
From wild Danskamer to Haarlem sands,
A penitent soldier preached the Word,
And smote the heathen with Gideon's sword!
