When joys of earth were shrouded from our view, He told us Heaven would soon come smiling through ; When our sad nation delved in deepest night, To his pure spirit, God was still in sight ; He saw the promise clear. Look upward, mountains ! he has onward passed; But his great shadow o'er the cliffs is cast, And long among thy peaks his name shall last — The lofty-souled Whittier ! IV. Tell of him, Ocean ; let thy cold waves be Each one a voice ; he loved to sing of thee. He traced thy tossing p...athways o'er and o'er — He mourned the wrecks that lashed thy wailing shore ; Full oft he made thy guests once more engage In dramas on thy great cloud-curtained stage ; He camped with thee, thy legends sweetly sung, Now heard where'er the heart has found a tongue ; He sought thy shore for Sea-dreams, sadly true, Of the sweet girl-love that his boyhood knew. Thou wast his teacher, ancient, gray-haired sea ; His lofty genius lessons learned from thee, Its steadfast course to steer ; For thou each clay art sending, one by one, Thy foaming billows upward toward the sun, Which, marshalled in their cloud-flotillas grand, Sail o'er the harvest field and desert-land, Then cast to earth their glittering, life-charged seeds, And minister once more to mortal needs.
