| | | ’MID white Sierras, that slope to the sea, | |
| Lie turbulent lands. Go dwell in the skies, | |
| And the thundering tongues of Yosemitè | |
| Shall persuade you to silence, and you shall be wise. | |
| |
| I but sing for the love of song and the few | 5 |
| Who loved me first and shall love me last; | |
| And the storm shall pass as the storms have passed, | |
| For never were clouds but the sun came through. | | | | |
