Where waters flowed like sleep forevermore.

Lo, in the darkness, thick with dust of years,

How many a ghostly god around his throne,

With thronging winds that were forgotten Fames,

Stood, ere the dawn restore to ancient ears

The long-withholden thunder of their names,

And music stilled to monumental stone.
