Reflections
The water’s gently undulating hills are made of
Many thousand polished moving mirrors,
Mingled with seams of flowing silver,
And each, like a smooth crystal,
When touched by the sun’s flaming rays,
Amuses our eyes with quivering flashes.
Oh let them, like burning mirrors,
When we gaze upon them, kindle our hearts to devotion!
Heinrich Brockes
