An Anthology of Czechoslovak Literature/February
February
And amid depth of woods, and calm of snowclad meadows
Hearkenest to the beat of life,
Dost thou not ever hear
Voice of the depths?
Earth’s muteness is of woe.
But below
The heart-beat stirs, and from the gloom a hidden well
Thrusts itself lightwards.
Quicken thy heart, and daze thy thoughts with joy that we
Though in despair, yet not alone in hope can be.
The Months (1919)
