  4. Poetry Annotation • The Worship of Nature by John Greenleaf Whittier • The harp at Nature's advent strungHas never ceased to play; The song the stars of morning sungHas never died away.And prayer is made, and praise is given, By all things near and far; The ocean looketh up to heaven, And mirrors every star.Its waves are kneeling on the strand, As kneels the human knee, Their white locks bowing to the sand, The priesthood of the sea! They pour their glittering treasures forth, Their gifts of pearl they bring, And all the listening hills of earthTake up the song they sing. The green earth sends its incense up From many a mountain shrine; From folded leaf and dewy cup She pours her sacred wine.
