PILGRIM'S SONG TO THE EVENING STAR.




O soft star of the west!
Gleaming far,
Thou'rt guiding all things home,
Gentle star!
Thou bring'st from rock and wave,
    The sea-bird to her nest,
The hunter from the hills,
    The fisher back to rest.
Light of a thousand streams,
Gleaming far!
O soft star of the west,
Blessed star!
