  Let in the light! The sky is bright, The air is flowing free; The mountains glow,— The vale, below, Is holding jubilee. Let in the light! Sad oversight To miss so sweet a morn;— The vision flies; Awake! arise! Each dawn is life reborn. Let in the light! O, read aright The day’s Apocalypse; Its hours enfold The age of gold, And all thy dreams eclipse. 'Twill soon be night;— Prize every moment given; With all thy might Serve thou the right, And leave the rest to Heaven.
