Ralph Waldo Emerson - The Park

Ralph Waldo Emerson - The Park

The prosperous and beautiful br To me seem not to wear br The yoke of conscience masterful, br Which galls me everywhere. br br I cannot shake off the god; br On my neck he makes his seat; br I look at my face in the glass, br My eyes his eye-balls meet. br br Enchanters! enchantresses! br Your gold makes you seem wise: br The morning mist within your grounds br More proudly rolls, more softly lies. br br Yet spake yon purple mountain, br Yet said yon ancient wood, br That night or day, that love or crime br Lead all souls to the Good.
