The brook runs down in sending up our life.
The sun runs down in sending up the brook.

Against the stream, that most we see ourselves in,
The tribute of the current to the source.
It is from this in nature we are from.
It is most us.

as they are free to go in quest,
of the knowledge beyond the bounds of life,
it may not seem better to me to rest.

And the work is play for mortal stakes
Is the deed ever truly done
For Heaven and the future's sakes
