Glory in glory, without sense of change.

We trod the shadow of the downward hill;

We pass'd from light to dark. On the other side

Is scooped a cavern and a mountain-hall,

Which none have fathom'd. If you go far in

(The country people rumour) you may hear

The moaning of the woman and the child,

Shut in the secret chambers of the rock.

I too have heard a sound—perchance of streams

Running far-off within its inmost halls,
