Hush! Hush!
Let the hush fall
unto the far corners of the Earth!
Stop the dinning!
Stop the motley laughter,
Aye, and garnish music's where dead spirits
play in living flesh!
Stop the streaming wry-words,
stop the tongue of prophecy!
Leave by truth upon it.
Let the hush of all things be!
Stop! Stop!
Stop the wheeling, teaming, speeding,
Racking, torturing din,
with the Great Hush which is
TRUTH!
