The lark's triumphant voice, the fawn's young glee,

The hyacinth's meek head.

On my own heart I lay

The weary babe; and sealing with a breath

Its eyes of love, send fairy dreams, beneath

The shadowing lids to play.

I come with mightier things!

Who calls me silent? I have many tones—

The dark skies thrill with low mysterious moans,

Borne on my sweeping wings.
