Shade upon the sunshine lying

Faint and somewhat pensively; 20

And downward Image gaily vying

With its upright living tree

’Mid silver clouds, and openings of blue sky

As soft almost and deep as her cerulean eye.

Nor less the joy with many a glance 25

Cast up the Stream or down at her beseeching,

To mark its eddying foam-balls prettily distrest

By ever-changing shape and want of rest;
