To hear an oriole sing

Scott Wheeler

To hear an Oriole sing

May be a common thing —

Or only a divine.

It is not of the Bird

Who sings the same, unheard,

As unto Crowd —

The Fashion of the Ear

Attireth that it hear

In Dun, or fair —

So whether it be Rune,

Or whether it be none

Is of within.

The "Tune is in the Tree —"

The Skeptic — showeth me —

"No Sir! In Thee!”
