Of boughs, as if for festal purpose, decked

With unrejoicing berries, ghostly shapes

May meet at noontide: Fear and trembling Hope,

Silence and Foresight—Death the skeleton,

And Time the shadow—here to celebrate,

As in a natural temple scattered o’er

With altars undisturbed of mossy stone,

United worship; or in mute repose

To lie, and listen to the mountain flood

Murmuring from Glaramara’s inmost caves.
