O’er many a threatening torrent here, chasm, wide and great;

And ever man and gods shall their new links create—

Some for service and for song, and some for wonder and delight;

And some time, somewhere the Bridge—to everlasting light.


THE MIGHT OF MATUTINAL MUSIC

When awaking from dreams completely refresht,

My body reclining still;

With a soul alive and a heart at rest,

And master too of my will—
