Summer,


Lo lazy Summer swarthy. in the sun
Lies painting, with the bare breasts upon the hills
swathins her limbs in hazes warm and dun,
Where splendors into dusky splendors run,
And sultrytslory all the heavens o'erfills.
Not white dimple stirs amid the corn,
Not low ripple shivers through the leaves
Since wrapped in gold and crimson CLEANS un
shOrn,
Came, flashing through the east the regal morn
No throated tuitterings gursle round the caves
Flooded in sunny silence sleep the kline.
In languid murmurs brook lets float and how;
The quaint farm gables in the rich ight shine,
And round them jasmined honey suckles twlne,
And close beside them sun-howers burn and blow.
Amid the growing heat | lie me down.
And into visions swarms the mot ed air:
Cleans up before me many a famous town,
PiIlared and crested with a regal crown
outshimmering in an orient purple glare.
L. lowly Tadmore burning in its sands
Baalheck and Babylon /; l see slow streams
Gliding by mosque and minaret--see CLEANS
Ol seas sunset slips of strands,
Aud drowsy Bagdad buried deep in dreams
See swarthy mOnarchs flushed in purple rings
Oi silken courtiers through hali-open doors
Catch the spice Odors, and cool of springs
Leaving 'orever in maze OF wings
bee light forms dancing over pearly hoorsi
Sleeping Seralio's spire and tremulous dome
WinSIng IN drowsy spIendor all the day,
See forest haupts where thick the lions roam,
See thirsty panthers splashed in bloody foam,
Leap terrible a. lightning on their prey;
Or stand with Cortez q mountain peak
Above the Aztec cIty-see unrolled
Gem threaded shores of MonteZuma weak,
see the white temples swarming thick and sleek
And sunny streets stretched up by towers of gold:
See silken sails float by. ambrOsial
Laden W tn spices. mp Persian glen
Or stand on Lebanon, mid the cedars tail,
Or hear the soft and silver fall
oi water down jut OF DarIen.
But 10 a waking shiver in the trees.
Ana voices md the hay cocks in the glen;
The sun is setting; and the crimson seas
Are shaken unto splendOr BY the breeze,
Ana all the busy world Is up again
