To be of him, and of his world, a part;

I stood beside his seas, beneath his skies,

I felt his ships beneath me dip and rise;

I heard his winds go roaring through tall trees,

Thunder his sails, and drive the lifted spray;

I heard the sullen beating of his seas;

In a deep valley, at the end of day,

I walked through darkness green along with him,

And saw the little stars, by moon made dim,

Peer softly through the dusk, the clouds between,
