Gray earth, gray mist, gray sky:
Through vapors hurrying by,
Larger than wont, on high
Floats the horned, yellow moon.
Chill airs arc family stirred,
And far away is heard,
or some frcsh-waker cd bird,
Tho querulous, shrill tune.
The dark mist hides the face
OF the dim land: no trace
Of rock or rivers place
In the thick air is drawn;
But dripping grass smells sweet,
And rustling branches meet,
And sounding waters greet
Tho slow, sure, sacred dawn.
Past is the long black night.
viii its keen lightnings white,
Thunder and floods: new light
The glimmering low cast strcaks.
The dense clouds part: between
Their jagged rents arc seen
Pale reaches blue aud green,
AS the mirk curtain breaks.
Above tho shadowy world, =.
Still more and more unfurled
The gathered mists IL curlcd
Like phantoms melt and pass.
In clcar-obscure revealed,
Brown wood, gray stream, dark field
Fresh, healthy odors yield
Wet furrows, flowers and grass.
The sudden. splendid gleam
Ofone thin, golden beam
Shoots from the fcathered lin
Ofyon hill crowned with woods.
Down its embowered side,
As living waters slide,
So the great morning tide
Follows in sunny foods.
From bush and hedge and trco
Joy, unrestrainod and free,
Breaks forth in melody,
Tw1tter and chlrp and song:
Alive the festal air
With gauzc-winged creatures fair,
That flicker everywhere,
Dart, poise and flash along. =
The shining mists are gone,
Slight films Of gold swift-blown
Before the strong, bright sun
Or the.deep-colored sky;.
: A world ofiife and glow
Sparkles and basks below,
Where the soft meads arrow,
Hoary with dcw-fall, lio.
Docs not the morn break thus,
Swift, bright. victorious, ;
With new skies cleared fcru,
Over the soul storm-.ost2
Her night was long and deep,
Strange visions vcxcd her sleep,
Strange sorrows bade her weep,
Her faith in dawn was lost.
No halt, no rest for her, =. (,
The immortal wanderer :.
From sphere to higher sphere,
Toward the pure source of day.
The new light shamesfher fears,
Her faithlessness, her tears,
As the new'sun appears.
To light her god]ike way.

The weary minstrel, and his song too brief,
But when shuts down on him the cofins lid,
Up springs th' immortal bay around the urn
Twines deathless memories round a shrine

And bids the world its homage yield: return
