Oh, cool as the flutter of fountains,

And fresh as the fall of the dew,

Wet as the hues of the rain-arch,

In that vale, is the dawn, when, o'er mountains,

Pearl-peaked and hyaline blue,

Through the Memnonian blue,

Her spirit, like music, comes slowly,

A music of light and of fire,

Leaving her footsteps in roses

There on its summits, while holy,
