Downward, Through The Blooming Roofage

by Charles Harpur

Charles Harpur

Downward, through the blooming roofage
Of a lonely forest bower,
Come the yellow sunbeams,-falling
Like a burning shower:
So through heaven's starry ceiling
To the hermit soul's abode,
Comes the Holy Spirit,-earthward
Raying down from God.
