Rang through the ringing in their ears.

They heard the hum of Attic bees

Upon Hymettus; and the seas

Rose up, white lipped, with dripping hair

To teach the secret of Despair;

Yet more. Their ravished vision saw

All Glory flash above the flaw

That men esteem as Nature’s law;

While Fancy, wiser, sees the Fates

Sit spinning at the Ivory Gates,
