    On Sundays, at the matin-chime,
    The Alpine peasants, two and three,
    Climb up here to pray;
    Burghers and dames, at summer's prime,
    Ride out to church from Chamberry,
    Dight with mantles gay,
    But else it is a lonely time
    Round the Church of Brou.

The Sundaies of man's life,
Thredded together on time's string,
Make bracelets to adorn the wife
Of the eternal, glorious King.
On Sunday heaven's gates stand ope;
Blessings are plentiful and rife.
More plentiful than hope.

Mute is the voice of rural labour, hush'd
The ploughboy's whistle, and the milkmaid's song.

Gently on tiptoe Sunday creeps,
Cheerfully from the stars he peeps,
Mortals are all asleep below,
None in the village hears him go;
E'en chanticleer keeps very still,
For Sunday whispered, 'twas his will.
