Therefore, on every morrow, are we wreathing
A flowery band to bind us to the earth,
Spite of despondence, of the inhuman dearth
Of noble natures, of the gloomy days,
Of all the unhealthy and o'er-darkened ways
Made for our searching: yes, in spite of all,
Some shape of beauty moves away the pall
From our dark spirits.

Every Morning We Wreathe A Garland (A Flowery Band Which Keeps Us Attached And Connected To Earth.

Such the sun, the moon,
Trees old, and young, sprouting a shady boon
For simple sheep; and such are daffodils
With the green world they live in; and clear rills
That for themselves a cooling covert make
"Gainst the hot season; the mid forest brake,
Rich with a sprinkling of fair musk-rose blooms;

All Beautiful Things Of The Nature Are A Boon For Humanity. Beautiful Objects Like The Sun , The Moon , Trees Whether Old Or Young Which Provide Shade To Everyone, The Daffodils Which Bloom In Forests ,  The Clear Streams Which Provide Cooling Effect In The Area Where They Are Found Against The Hot Season And Make Everyone Feel Comfortable.  The Mid Forest Ferns And Musk Roses Also Have The Same Effect On Us And Give Us Mental Peace And Calmness.

And such too is the grandeur of the dooms
We have imagined for the mighty dead;
All lovely tales that we have heard or read;
An endless fountain of immortal drink,
Pouring unto us from the heaven's brink.
