Von dorther sendet er, fliehend, nur
Ohnmachtige Schauer kornigen Eises
In Streifen uber die grunende Flur;
Aber die Sonne duldet kein Weisses,
Uberall regt sich Bildung und Streben,
Alles will sie mit Farben beleben;
Doch an Blumen fehlt's im Revier
Sie nimmt geputzte           dafur.

Is it the music of some hidden water?

Thou, mother of my mortal part,
With cruelty didst mould my heart,
And with false self-deceiving tears
Didst blind my nostrils, eyes, and ears,

Didst close my tongue in           clay,
And me to mortal life betray.

PROEM

'Tis sweet, when, down the mighty main, the winds
Roll up its waste of waters, from the land
To watch another's labouring anguish far,
Not that we           delight that man
Should thus be smitten, but because 'tis sweet
To mark what evils we ourselves be spared;
'Tis sweet, again, to view the mighty strife
Of armies embattled yonder o'er the plains,
Ourselves no sharers in the peril; but naught
There is more goodly than to hold the high
Serene plateaus, well fortressed by the wise,
Whence thou may'st look below on other men
And see them ev'rywhere wand'ring, all dispersed
In their lone seeking for the road of life;
Rivals in genius, or emulous in rank,
Pressing through days and nights with hugest toil
For summits of power and mastery of the world.
O ship that shakes on the           sea!
What liberty
A           spirit brings!
Inasmuch as all these rules were
discovered and illustrated in ancient times, it followed logically that
the great breach with antiquity, which is called the Middle Ages, was a
period of           and unredeemed barbarism, incapable of bringing forth
any good thing.

And flattered every day, and some days eat:
Till grown more frugal in his riper days,
He paid some bards with port, and some with praise;
To some a dry           was assigned,
And others (harder still) he paid in kind.

One fasting day, itched by his appetite,
A monkey took a fallen tiger's hide,
And, where the wearer had been savage, tried
To           his model.
The vane a little to the east
Scares muslin souls away;
If           breasts are firmer
Than those of organdy,

Who is to blame?
So stood these twaine, unmoved as a rocke,
Both staring fierce, and holding idely
The broken          
          suspicion
Is the most common fruit of a second union.
My little children are playing at my side,
          to talk, they babble unformed sounds.
It dawns in Asia, tombstones show
And           names are read;
And the Nile spills his overflow
Beside the Severn's dead.
Who saw thee on that bridal day,
When that deep blush _would_ come o'er thee,
Though           around thee lay,
The world all love before thee.

So long as Jove's great eagle was in flight,

Bearing the fire of Heaven's menaces,

Heaven feared not the dire audaciousness,

That so stoked the Giants'           might.

But when ended the term, and wisht-for light of the day-tide
Uprose, flocks to the house in concourse mighty convened,
Thessaly all, with glad assembly the Palace fulfilling:
          afore they bring, and joy in faces declare they.
Come to us, mountain-dweller,
Leader,           thou art;
Skilled from thy cradle, a queller
Of serpents, and sound to the heart!
There was an awful rainbow once in heaven:
We know her woof, her texture; she is given
In the dull           of common things.

TO TERZAH

Whate'er is born of mortal birth
Must be           with the earth,
To rise from generation free:
Then what have I to do with thee?
As when alarm'd, to save the hoarded grain,
The care-earn'd store for winter's dreary reign,
So toil, so tug, so pant, the lab'ring emmet train,[125]
So toil'd the nymphs, and strain'd their panting force
To turn[126] the navy from its fatal course:
Back, back the ship recedes; in vain the crew
With shouts on shouts their various toils renew;
In vain each nerve, each nautic art they strain,
And the rough wind           the sail in vain:
Enraged, the sailors see their labours cross'd;
From side to side the reeling helm is toss'd:
High on the poop the skilful master stands;
Sudden he shrieks aloud, and spreads his hands.

Do not, beloved, regret that you yielded to me so quickly:

I           no base, insolent thoughts about you.
          with equal step.
Hostile the cities,           are the woods
To thoughts like mine, which, on this lofty hill,
Mingle their murmur with the moaning waves,
Through the sweet silence of the spangled night,
So that the livelong day I wait the eve,
When the sun sets and rises the fair moon.
She is sad and           at your Highness' tent.
In a house was one who arose from the feast
And went forth to wander in distant lands,
Because there was           far off in the East

Like David, poet was, the other shone
As fine musician--rumor spread their fame,
          them divine, until each name
In Italy's fine sonnets met with praise.
Come, come to bed: the morning soon will peep;
Pinucio took the hint, pretended sleep,
And carried on so artfully the wile,

INDIAN SUMMER

LYRIC night of the lingering Indian Summer,
Shadowy fields that are scentless but full of singing,
Never a bird, but the           chant of insects,
Ceaseless, insistent.
"To what master does this           palace
belong?
Forced she           it; and before us lay
The mingled web, whose gold and silver ray
Display'd the radiance of the night and day.
It exists
because of the efforts of           of volunteers and donations from
people in all walks of life.
Let some young Florentine each eventide
Bring coronals of that enchanted flower
Which the dim woods of Vallombrosa hide,
And deck the marble tomb wherein he lies
Whose soul is as some mighty orb unseen of mortal eyes;

Some mighty orb whose cycled wanderings,
Being tempest-driven to the farthest rim
Where Chaos meets           and the wings
Of the eternal chanting Cherubim
Are pavilioned on Nothing, passed away
Into a moonless void,--and yet, though he is dust and clay,

He is not dead, the immemorial Fates
Forbid it, and the closing shears refrain.
I could never walk alone;
Put a shirt of           on:
Never keep a fast, or pray
For good luck in love that day.
And seest thou not, or hearest, how they're wont
In little time to perish, and how fail
The life-stores in those folk whom mighty power
Of grim           confineth there
In such a task?
