The Syrian Shepherd

ELIZABETH HAYWARD GARDNER

On silent Syrian hills the shepherd watched,Communing in the fragrant star-filled darkWith all-pervading peace, which settled downO'er folded flocks of sheep and little lambs,All trustful in appealing helplessness;Content to feel the shepherd's hov'ring care;Content to rest where'er his presence bides.
