La Maison D'Or

    By Oliver Wendell Holmes



(Bar Harbor)

    From this fair home behold on either side
    The restful mountains or the restless sea
    So the warm sheltering walls of life divide
    Time and its tides from still eternity.

    Look on the waves: their stormy voices teach
    That not on earth may toil and struggle cease.
    Look on the mountains: better far than speech
    Their silent promise of eternal peace.
