Upon a mortal pane.

Watts.

When on some balmy-breathing night of spring

The happy child to whom the world is new,

Pursues the evening moth of mealy wing,

Or from the heath-bell shakes the sparkling dew,

He sees before his inexperienced eyes,

The brilliant glow-worm like a meteor shine

On the turf-bank, surprised, and pleased, he cries

“Star of the dewy grass! I make thee mine.”
