IN THE NEST OF THE LARK by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: HERE THE SILENTEST OF THINGS
Last Line: FROM THE SKIES.
Subject(s): BIRDS; LARKS; SKYLARKS;

Here the silentest of things
Lowliest lies;
Where with palpitating wings,
Swift to rise,
Wakes the soul that sweetest sings
And the loftiest anthem brings
From the skies.
