Their pillar’d walks and dim arcades,

With all the thousand flowers that blow,

A waste of loveliness, below.

To him whose soul the world would fly,

For nature’s lonely majesty:

To bard, when wrapt in mighty themes,

To lover, lost in fairy dreams,

To hermit, whose prophetic thought

By fits a gleam of heaven hath caught,

And, in the visions of his rest,
