The Revolt of Islam. Canto v. Stanza 23.

The awful shadow of some unseen Power

Floats, tho' unseen, amongst us.

Hymn to Intellectual Beauty.

[[565]]

The Pilgrim of Eternity, whose fame

Over his living head like heaven is bent,

An early but enduring monument,

Came, veiling all the lightnings of his song

In sorrow.
