What other spirit can it be that prompts

The gilded summer flies to mix and weave

Their sports together in the solar beam,

Or in the gloom of twilight hum their joy?

More obviously the self-same influence rules

The feathered kinds; the fieldfare's pensive flock,[336][EL]

The cawing rooks, and sea-mews from afar,

Hovering above these inland solitudes,

By the rough wind unscattered, at whose call

Up through the trenches of the long-drawn vales
