They are at rest.
They are at rest.
We may not stir the heav'n of their repose
We may not stir the heav'n of their repose
By rude invoking voice, or prayer addrest
By rude invoking voice, or prayer addrest
In waywardness to those
In waywardness to those
Who in the mountain grots of Eden lie,
Who in the mountain grots of Eden lie,
And hear the fourfold river as it murmurs by.
And hear the fourfold river as it murmurs by.


And soothing sounds
And soothing sounds
Blending with the neighb'ring waters as they glide;
Blending with the neighb'ring waters as they glide;
Posted along the haunted garden's bounds,
Posted along the haunted garden's bounds,
Angelic forms abide,
Angelic forms abide,
Echoing, as words of watch, o'er lawn and grove
Echoing, as words of watch, o'er lawn and grove

They are at rest.
We may not stir the heav'n of their repose
By rude invoking voice, or prayer addrest
In waywardness to those
Who in the mountain grots of Eden lie,
And hear the fourfold river as it murmurs by.

And soothing sounds
Blending with the neighb'ring waters as they glide;
Posted along the haunted garden's bounds,
Angelic forms abide,
Echoing, as words of watch, o'er lawn and grove
The verses of that hymn which Seraphs chant above.
