Where the sombre azimuths are booming,

Flecked with argent elemental foam,

And the stately colocynths are blooming

In a salicylic monochrome;

There, transported on pellucid pinions,

Sick of common sense I seek repose,

Far from the disconsolate dominions

Tainted by the tyranny of prose.

O'er the whole translunar gamut ranging.

There my astral body slides and skims,
