Alternate Author Name(s): Stevenson, Robert Lewis Balfour
Subject(s): Nature; Thunder
HE hears with gladdened heart the thunder
Peal, and loves the falling dew;
He knows the earth above and under --
Sits and is content to view.
He sits beside the dying ember,
God for hope and man for friend,
Content to see, glad to remember.
Expectant of the certain end.
