Dedicated to Pol Plançon de l’Opéra, with text by Victor Hugo. Written in F major (E. & C. 2101?) and D major, the original key (E. & C. 2102). The poem evokes the sights, sounds, scents, and tastes of nature, suggesting that through these experiences one may gain a deeper understanding of God. It speaks of the earth, the waves of the sea, the horizon of the sky, the winds, the stars, the fields, and the foliage.
