Duly there they bathed and daily, the twain or the trio,

Where in the morning was custom, where over a ledge of granite

Into a granite basin the amber torrent descended;

Beautiful, very, to gaze in ere plunging; beautiful also,

Perfect as picture, as vision entrancing that comes to the sightless,

Through the great granite jambs the stream, the glen, and the mountain,

Beautiful, seen by snatches in intervals of dressing,

Morn after morn, unsought for, recurring; themselves too seeming

Not as spectators, accepted into it, immingled, as truly

Part of it as are the kine in the field lying there by the birches.
