The reticent volcano keeps

 

His never slumbering plan—

 

Confided are his projects pink

 

To no precarious man.

 

If nature will not tell the tale

 

Jehovah told to her

 

Can human nature not survive

 

Without a listener?

 

Admonished by her buckled lips

 

Let every babbler be

 

The only secret people keep

 

Is Immortality.
