Hello -

I'd like to post Ralph Waldo Emerson - Nature.
https://www.public-domain-poetry.com/ralph-waldo-emerson/nature-15351.

Thank you!

[Rapunzelina]

Hi there! Welcome to the poetry collection!

Looking at a published book, I can see that the poem Nature is just the second part of the text you've linked to
https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.505505/page/n317/mode/2up
The first part is mostly lines taken from the poem May-Day: https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.505505/page/n189/mode/2up?q=%22A+subtle+chain+of+countless+rings%22

So, for the poem Nature, please use this text: https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.505505/page/n317/mode/2up
Have a look at the first post here for instructions on the opening and closing words, how to name the file, where to upload, etc.

Thank you!!
