William Woodsworth is talking about a night on the beach he experienced. He is admiring the beauty of nature. I like the simile, The holy time is quiet as a Nun. He then contrasts the tranquility with the opposite end of nature, a thunderstorm. At the end he is reminded of the awesome power of God. It is a powerful poem which I understood.
