    Strike pleasant on the sense, most like the voice
    Of one, who from the far-off hills proclaims
    Tidings of good to Zion.

Around, around,
Companions all, take your ground,
And name the bell with joy profound!

That calls to those in friendship bound.

Bell, thou soundest merrily,
When the bridal party
To the church doth hie!
Bell, thou soundest solemnly,
When, on Sabbath morning,
Fields deserted lie!

How soft the music of those village bells,
Falling at interval upon the ear
In cadence sweet; now dying all away,
Now pealing loud again, and louder still,
Clear and sonorous, as the gale comes on!
With easy force it opens all the cells
Where Memory slept.

Then get thee gone and dig my grave thyself,
And bid the merry bells ring to thine ear

And the Sabbath bell,
That over wood and wild and mountain dell
Wanders so far, chasing all thoughts unholy
With sounds most musical, most melancholy.

Enforcing his own solitude, it tolls!

To warn us from the place of jeopardy!

The vesper bell from far
That seems to mourn for the expiring day.
