Ends in a golden-roofed balcony

Sphering the flowered horizon.

Ere my heart

Hath hushed the panic tumult of its pulses,

I listen, from beyond the horizon’s rim,

A mutter faint as when the far simoon,

Mounting from unknown deserts, opens forth,

Wide as the waste, those wings of torrid night

That fling the doom of cities from their folds,

And musters in its van a thousand winds,
