And see the summer from her bluest sky

From summers mouths
From pines that weave. among the raw

Their phantom bowers.
A murmur comes. as sought the ghosts OF

The ghosts OF flowers.
Though yet no blood may swell the willow
No grass blade start.
A dream of blossoms fills the EARNING

Look forth, beloved. through the tender
And let thine eyes
The violets be it finds not anywhere.
And scentless dies.
Look. and thy trembling locks of plente-
Gus gold
The day shall see.
And search no more where first. on yon-
der void,
The cowslips be.
Look. and the wandering summer, not
forlorn.
Shall turn aside,
Content to leave her million flowers un-

Her songs untried.
Drowsy with life. and not with sleep or

Breathe forth thy being in one answering

And come 10 me!
Come forth, beloved! Loves exuItant sign
