“And thou, who didst the stars and sunbeams know, Self-school'd, self-scann'd, self-honour'd, self-secure, Didst tread on earth unguess'd at. Better so!

“Ere you lie down to sleep in the night, sit still awhile, and nurse again to life your gentler self. Forget the restless, noisy spirit of the day, and encourage to speech the soft voices within you that timidly whisper of the peace of the quiet night; and occasionally look out at the quiet stars. The night will soothe you like a tender mother, folding you against her soft bosom, and hiding you from the harm of the world.” WorldLooksStillsSelfSpiritLyingMotherNightStarsPeaceVoiceSleepForgetQuietSpeechHarmHidingNurseWithin YouRestlessBosomsYou AgainNoisyFolding Author:Max Ehrmann
