I was up the next morning before the October sunrise, and away through the wild and the woodland. The rising of the sun was noble in the cold and warmth of it;peeping down the spread of light, he raised his shoulder heavily over the edge of Gray Mountain and wavering length of upland. Beneath his gaze the dew-fogs dipped and crept to the hollow places, then stole away in line and column, holding skirts and clinging subtly at the sheltering corners where rock hung over grassland, while the brave lines of the hills came forth, one beyond other gliding.
The woods arose in folds, like drapery of awakened mountains, stately with a depth of awe, and memory of the tempests. Autumn's mellow hand was upon them, as they owned already, touched with gold and red and olive, and their joy towards the sun was less to a bridegroom than a father.
Yet before the f?loating impress of the woods could clear itself, suddenly the gladsome light leaped over hill and valley, casting amber, blue, and purple, and a tint of rich red rose, according to the scene they lit on, and the curtain f?lung around;yet all like a dispelling fear and the cloven hoof of darkness, all on the wings of hope advancing, and proclaiming,“God is here!”Then life and joy sprang reassured from every crouching hollow;every f?lower and bud and bird had a f?luttering sense of them, and all the f?lashing of God's gaze merged into soft benef?icence.
So, perhaps, shall break upon us that eternal morning, when crag and chasm shall be no more, neither hill and valley, nor great unvintaged ocean;when glory shall not scare happiness, neither happiness envy glory;but all things shall arise, and shine in the light of the Father's countenance, because itself is risen.
次日清晨，十月的太阳还没有升起，我已起身出门，穿越原野和林地。在十月寒冷与温暖相交的天气里，日出是那样隆重。透过隐约可见的朝晖，太阳从格雷山边和蜿蜒的高地上缓缓升起。在阳光的照射下，晨雾收起了它的湿气，降落到山谷里，然后偷偷变成丝缕，拖着裙摆在草地上的岩石角落里寻找栖身之所，而小山粗壮的线条渐渐明朗，连续不断地滑现在眼前。
