Glee! The great storm is over!
Glee! The great storm is over!
Glee! The great storm is over!
Four have recovered the land;
Forty gone down together
Into the boiling sand.
Ring, for the scant salvation!
Toll, for the bonnie souls, --
Neighbor and friend and bridegroom,
Spinning upon the shoals!
How they will tell the shipwreck
When winter shakes the door,
Till the children ask, "But the forty?
Did they come back no more?"
Then a silence suffuses the story,
And a softness the teller's eye;
And the children no further question,
And only the waves reply.
埃米丽·迪金森：
美国女诗人埃米丽·迪金森的自然观与她的社会、家庭以及个人阅历有着极其密切的联系。她诗歌中所描绘的自然既反映出爱默生的超验主义思想 ,又不时地唱出与清教主义旋律相近的曲调。她热爱大自然 ,但又夹杂着疑惑和恐惧。她的复杂的心理因素构成了她的复杂的自然观。
