Of beauty; dreams, with which he trod

Companioned as some sylvan god.

And oft men wondered, when his thought

Made all their knowledge seem as naught,

If he, like Uther's mystic son,

Had not been born for Avalon.

When wandering 'mid the whispering trees,

His soul communed with every breeze;

Heard voices calling from the glades,

Bloom-words of the Leimoniads;
