i'll go live under the ivy that overgrows the terrace and count the
tears shed on its old plays the song of | img2poems |
swift as a spirit hastening to his task
of glory and of good the sun sprang forth
rejoicing in his splendour and the mask | img2poems |
isle ocean and all things that in them wear
the form and character of mortal mould
rise as the sun their father rose to bear | img2poems |
had kept as wakeful as the stars that gem
the cone of night now they were laid asleep
stretched my faint limbs beneath the hoary stem | img2poems |
was so transparent that the scene came through
as clear as when a veil of light is drawn
o'er evening hills they glimmer and i knew | img2poems |
as in that trance of wondrous thought i lay
this was the tenour of my waking dream
methought i sate beside a public way | img2poems |
all hastening onward yet none seemed to know
whither he went or whence he came or why
he made one of the multitude and so | img2poems |
and others as with steps towards the tomb
pored on the trodden worms that crawled beneath
and others mournfully within the gloom | img2poems |
but more with motions which each other crossed
pursued or shunned the shadows the clouds threw
or birds within the noonday aether lost | img2poems |
upon that path where flowers never grew
and weary with vain toil and faint for thirst
heard not the fountains whose melodious dew | img2poems |
with overarching elms and caverns cold
and violet banks where sweet dreams brood but they
pursued their serious folly as of old | img2poems |
so came a chariot on the silent storm
of its own rushing splendour and a shape
so sate within as one whom years deform | img2poems |
speed in the van and blindness in the rear
nor then avail the beams that quench the sun
or that with banded eyes could pierce the sphere | img2poems |
the crowd gave way and i arose aghast
or seemed to rise so mighty was the trance
and saw like clouds upon the thunder-blast | img2poems |
by action or by suffering and whose hour
was drained to its last sand in weal or woe
so that the trunk survived both fruit and flower | img2poems |
fled back like eagles to their native noon
or those who put aside the diadem
of earthly thrones or gems | img2poems |
was soothed by mischief since the world begun
throw back their heads and loose their streaming hair
and in their dance round her who dims the sun | img2poems |
kindle invisibly and as they glow
like moths by light attracted and repelled
oft to their bright destruction come and go | img2poems |
yet ere i can say where the chariot hath
passed over them nor other trace i find
but as of foam after the ocean's wrath | img2poems |
and follow in the dance with limbs decayed
seeking to reach the light which leaves them still
farther behind and deeper in the shade | img2poems |
that what i thought was an old root which grew
to strange distortion out of the hill side
was indeed one of those deluded crew | img2poems |
'i will unfold that which to this deep scorn
led me and my companions and relate
the progress of the pageant since the morn | img2poems |
