Explore "A Song after Sundown" by Henry Van Dyke on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
"There's no music like a little river's. It plays the same tune (and / that's the favourite) over and over again, and yet does not weary of it / like men fiddlers. It takes the mind out of doors; and though we should / be grateful for good houses, there is, after all, no house like god's / out-of-doors. And lastly, sir, it quiets a man down like saying his / prayers. " -- ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON: Prince Otto.
