And the larch has hung his tassels forth.

The breaking waves dashed high
On a stern and rock-bound coast,
And the woods against a stormy sky
Their giant branches tossed.

Gird your hearts with silent fortitude, Suffering, yet hoping all things.

Calm on the bosom of thy God,
Fair spirit, rest thee now!

The woodman's axe lies free,
And the reaper's work is done.
