This song, much like this whole album, has a theme of returning to the beauty of nature and the countryside of the British Isles and making a kind of mystical, spiritual inner connection. Finding "the speck of truth in each riddle" and holding "the first grain of love in our hands" is mystical poetry. It means connecting to God in a pantheistic way, through the present energy of what is right in front of us. Music and nature have a clear value and role to play in this experience. The ultimate nature of the experience is a kind of transcendence.
