"BY SWEET ENFORCEMENT AND REMEMBRANCES DEAR,"
"AND PARDON THAT THY SECRETS SHOULD BE SUNG"
"EVEN INTO THINE OWN SOFT-CONCH'eD EAR:"
"SURELY I DREAM'D TO-DAY, OR DID I SEE"
"THE WING'eD PSYCHE WITH AWAKEN'D EYES?"
"I WANDER'D IN A FOREST THOUGHTLESSLY,"
"AND, ON THE SUDDEN, FAINTING WITH SURPRISE,"
"SAW TWO FAIR CREATURES, COUCH'eD SIDE BY SIDE"
"IN DEEPEST GRASS, BENEATH THE WHISP'RING ROOF"
"OF LEAVES AND TREMBLED BLOSSOMS, WHERE THERE RAN"
"A BROOKLET, SCARCE ESPIED:"
"'MID HUSH'D, COOL-ROOTED FLOWERS FRAGRANT-EYED,"
"BLUE, SILVER-WHITE, AND BUDDED TYRIAN"
"THEY LAY CALM-BREATHING ON THE BEDDED GRASS;"
"THEIR ARMS EMBRAC'eD, AND THEIR PINIONS TOO;"
"THEIR LIPS TOUCH'D NOT, BUT HAD NOT BADE ADIEU,"
"AS IF DISJOIN'eD BY SOFT-HANDED SLUMBER,"
"AND READY STILL PAST KISSES TO OUTNUMBER"
"AT TENDER EYE-DAWN OF AUROREAN LOVE:"
"THE WING'eD BOY I KNEW;"
"BUT WHO WAST THOU, O HAPPY, HAPPY DOVE?"
"HIS PSYCHE TRUE!"
"O LATEST-BORN AND LOVELIEST VISION FAR"
"OF ALL OLYMPUS' FADED HIERARCHY!"
"FAIRER THAN PHOEBE'S SAPPHIRE-REGION'D STAR,"
"OR VESPER, AMOROUS GLOW-WORM OF THE SKY;"
"FAIRER THAN THESE, THOUGH TEMPLE THOU HAST NONE,"
"NOR ALTAR HEAP'D WITH FLOWERS;"
"NOR VIRGIN-CHOIR TO MAKE DELICIOUS MOAN"
"UPON THE MIDNIGHT HOURS;"
"NO VOICE, NO LUTE, NO PIPE, NO INCENSE SWEET"
"FROM CHAIN-SWUNG CENSOR TEEMING;"
"NO SHRINE, NO GROVE, NO ORACLE, NO HEAT"
"OF PALE-MOUTH'D PROPHET DREAMING."
"O BRIGHTEST! THOUGH TOO LATE FOR ANTIQUE VOWS,"
"TOO, TOO LATE FOR THE FOND BELIEVING LYRE,"
"WHEN HOLY WERE THE HAUNTED FOREST BOUGHS,"
"HOLY THE AIR, THE WATER, AND THE FIRE;"
"YET EVEN IN THESE DAYS SO FAR RETIRED"
"FROM HAPPY PIETIES, THY LUCENT FANS,"
"FLUTTERING AMONG THE FAINT OLYMPIANS,"
"I SEE, AND SING, BY MY OWN EYES INSPIRED."
"SO LET ME BE THY CHOIR, AND MAKE A MOAN"
"UPON THE MIDNIGHT HOURS;"
"THY VOICE, THY LUTE, THY PIPE, THY INCENSE SWEET"
"FROM SWING'eD CENSOR TEEMING:"
"THY SHRINE, THY GROVE, THY ORACLE, THY HEAT"
"OF PALE-MOUTH'D PROPHET DREAMING."
"YES, I WILL BE THY PRIEST, AND BUILD A FANE"
"IN SOME UNTRODDEN REGION OF MY MIND,"
"WHERE BRANCH'eD THOUGHTS, NEW GROWN WITH PLEASANT PAIN,"
"INSTEAD OF PINES SHALL MURMUR IN THE WIND:"
"FAR, FAR AROUND SHALL THOSE DARK-CLUSTER'D TREES"
"FLEDGE THE WILD-RIDG'eD MOUNTAINS STEEP BY STEEP;"
"AND THERE BY ZEPHYRS, STREAMS, AND BIRDS, AND BEES,"
"THE MOSS-LAIN DRYADS SHALL BE LULL'D TO SLEEP;"
"AND IN THE MIDST OF THIS WIDE QUIETNESS"
"A ROSY SANCTUARY WILL I DRESS"
"WITH THE WREATH'D TRELLIS OF A WORKING BRAIN,"
"WITH BUDS, AND BELLS, AND STARS WITHOUT A NAME,"
"WITH ALL THE GARDENER FANCY E'ER COULD FEIGN,"
"WHO, BREEDING FLOWERS, WILL NEVER BREAD THE SAME;"
"AND THERE SHALL BE FOR THEE ALL SOFT DELIGHT"
"THAT SHADOWY THOUGHT CAN WIN,"
"A BRIGHT TORCH, AND A CASEMENT OPE AT NIGHT,"
"TO LET THE WARM LOVE IN!"
