The fountains mingle with the river,
and the rivers with the ocean;
The winds of heaven mix forever,
with a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single;
All things by a law divine
In one another's being mingle:
Why not I with thine?
See! The Mountains kiss high heaven,
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister flower would be forgiven
If it disdained it's brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
and the moonbeams kiss the sea:
What are all these kissings worth,
if thou kiss not me?
