The wonderland of trance.

Her thousand sun-lit cenSers still;

With slow feet, pausing at each turn;
A sudden watt of west wind blew
The breath of the sweet fern.
That fragrance from my vision swept
The alien landscape; in its stead,
Up fairer hills of youth / stepped.

While from her hand, the wild, sweet scent

O potent witchery of smell,
The dust-dry leaves to life returu:
And she who plurked them owns the spell,
And lifts her glostly fern.

What touch the chords of memory thrills
