And over the round dark edge of the hill

A cold green light was quivering still.

“And the crescent moon, high over the green,

From a sky of crimson shone,

On that icy palace, whose towers were seen

To sparkle as if with stars of their own;

While the water fell, with a hollow sound,

’Twixt the glistening pillars ranged around.

“Is that a being of life, that moves

Where the crystal battlements rise?
