Makes beautiful my immortality:

Once all my world was only phantom stream

And shadowy flower, and song that was not song,

And wrapt in white eternities I walked

A daughter of the gods, who knew not Death:

I was a thing of coldness and disdain,

Half-losing all that was so dear in life:

Enthroned in astral taciturnity,

I, looking tranquil-eyed on beauties old,

E’er faced some dull Forever, strange to Hope
