Into my heart, as thronged fancies come,

All unawares, into the poet's brain;

Or as the dew-drops on the petal hung,

When summer winds break their soft sleep with sighs,

Creep down into the bottom of the flower.

Her words were like a coronal of wild blooms

Strung in the very negligence of Art,

Or in the art of Nature, where each rose

Doth faint upon the bosom of the other,

Flooding its angry cheek with odorous tears.
