The IDEAL. oh We Gods IAN ever die,
But 10 the soul Of nan immortal calls
Still Jovc, sublime. shall wrap
His awful forehead III Olympian shrouds,
Or take along the Heavens dark wilderness
His thunder chase behind the hunted clouds
And mortal eyes upturned shall behold
Apolo'- rus,ling plume OF gold
Toss through the corridors OF the ancient sky,
That kindling oy Iyini,y:
And Hy. the Ruler of ' less Land
Of restless 9 shall ftfully illui
With smouldcring fire tu4i stir in governed olc'
Hes house OF shudderlne gloom -
Still the ethereal Huntre S, as of old,
Shall roam amid the sacred Latmos mountains,
And lave her virgin limbs in waters cold
That Earth holds sparkling up in marble fountains
And in his august dreams.
Along the Italian ~ streams.
The poor, old ,hroneless God,
with angry frown,
Will fecbly grasp the air for his lost crown
Then nurmur sadly low of his great overthrow -
And wrapt in sounding mail shall ne appear
Wars giant Charloteer
And where the conflict reels
Urge tbro the swaying lines his crashing wheels:
Or pause TO list amid the horren shades.
The deep, hoarse cry of Baitlc's thirsty blades
Led by the waiing spear
Till at the weary combats close
They give their passionate thanks
Amid the painting ranks
Of conquered foes
Then drunhen with their Kings red wine
Go swoonng to repose around his purple shrine.
Ill.
And He. the Trident Wielder, still shall see
The adoring Biows kneel around his feet,
While nj his call, the Winds in ministry
Before their altar OF the Tempest meet
Or when that. half awake, Hyperion smiles
To feel the kisses Of the amorous Morn
Shall. leaning gently DER the Paphan isles
Cheer'd by the music OF some Triton's horns
Lift up the shadowy curtains of the Night
To their hid windowtops above,
And battle thy drowsy eyelids with the light.
Vouptuous Queen OF Love!
And thou all thou
BON, in the visions of the white sea-foan,
That dreams a-,roubled still around thy home
Awaking from thy slumber, thou shalt press
Thy passionate lips on his resplendent brow
In some sweet lone recess
Where clad waves murmur and the dim leaves bow
And young Endymion
AT midnghis pallid noon
Shall still be charmed from his dewy sleep
Bv the foolish. lovesick Moon
Who thrills to find him in some lonely vale
Before her silver lamp may pale
And Pan shall play his reed
Down in the hushed arcades.
And Fauns shall prank the sward amid
Thcssalias whispering shades
".
Nor absent SHE whose orbs OF azure throw p
Truths sunburst on the world below:
Still shall she calmly watch the choral Years
Crcing slow the beamy spheres,
That tremble as she marches through their plains,
While momently rolls out a sullcn sound
From Errors hoary mountains falling round
Heard by the Titan. who. from his high rock
Filled with immortal pains
Tba, his immortal spirit still can mock
Exu,ant sees. despite the Oppressors ire,
The frost the heat, the vuture and the storm
Earth's conscious Wales rejoicing IN his fire
The homes the loves OF Men-those Beings wrought
To many beauteous form 81
In die grand Quiet OF his own great Thought
And over all bright. beautiful, serene,
And changeless in thy prime
rbou PSYCHE glory cinctured shalt be seen
Whispering forever that one word sublime.
