Soothing as the gospel.

Soothing as the breath of spring.
—Frederick William Faber
More soothing than the pretty hummer
That stays one moment in an open flower
And buzzes cheerily from bower to bower.
—John Keats
Soothing as the wash of the sea.
—Rudyard Kipling
Soothing as the gale of eve.
—Henry Hart Milman
