Who shows to Earth her heart's pale heat,

And bids her see its pulses glow,

And hear their crystal currents beat

With beauty, lighting all below.

O cricket, with thy elfin pipe,

That tinkles in the grass and grain;

And dove-pale buds, that, dropping, stripe

The glen's blue night, and smell of rain;

O nightingale, that so dost wail

On yonder branch of blossoming snow,
