Then wearily the nurse did throw
Her pallet in the darkest place
Of that sick room, and slept and dreamed:
For, as the gusty wind did blow
The night-lamp's flare across her face,
She saw or seemed to see, but dreamed,
That the poplars tall on the opposite hill,
The seven tall poplars on the hill,
Did clasp the setting sun until
His rays dropped from him, pined and still
As blossoms in frost,
Till he waned and paled, so weirdly crossed,
To the colour of
moonlight
which doth pass
Over the dank ridged churchyard grass.

Prods them on some side with this goad of fear--

Be following after, utterly fordone,

A deadly pallor, air distressed;

Of Spirits dread, down, down, in very wrath,
Shall sink beside that Hill, making their path
Through a dim chasm, the which shall aye be trod
By

Picked just now from all this blossoming,
That, if they'd not been gathered this evening,
Tomorrow would be

It yields and shivers at thy word;
