“They haven’t got no noses,

They cannot even tell

When door and darkness closes

The park a Jew encloses,

Where even the Law of Moses

Will let you steal a smell;

“The brilliant smell of water,

The brave smell of a stone,

The smell of dew and thunder

And old bones buried under,

Are things in which they blunder

And err, if left alone.

“The wind from winter forests,

The scent of scentless flowers,

The breath of bride’s adorning,

The smell of snare and warning,

The smell of Sunday morning,

God gave to us for ours.”
