There's music in the gushing of a rill;
There's music in all things, if men had ears;
Their earth is but an echo of the spheres...
--From Don Juan, Canto the Fifteenth,
by George Gordon Byron  (After the end of the book)
...Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard
Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on;
Not to the sensual ear, but, more endeared,
Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone...
--From Ode On a Grecian Urn
