In whose cool bosome we may lye
Safe from the Sun.

Not Heaven's Eye.

Near this, a Fountaines liquid Bell
Tinkles within the concave Shell.

Might a Soul bath there and be clean,
Or slake its Drought?

What is 't you mean?

These once had been enticing things,
Clorinda, Pastures, Caves, and Springs.

The other day
Pan met me.

I WHo All The Winter Through

...meet me in the dawning and the dew.

Now the hedged meads renew
Rustic odour, smiling hue,
And the clean air shines and tinkles as the world goes wheeling through;
And my heart springs up anew,
Bright and confident and true,
And my old love comes to meet me in the dawning and the dew....Read more of this...

Seaside

...aters swell towards the moon,
And all my tides set seaward.
From inland
Leaps a gay fragment of some mocking tune,
That tinkles and laughs and fades along the sand,
And dies between the seawall and the sea....Read more of this...

Song of Myself

...ters; 
The ring of alarm-bells—the cry of fire—the whirr of swift-streaking
 engines and hose-carts, with premonitory tinkles, and color’d lights; 
The steam-whistle—the solid roll of the train of approaching cars;
The slow-march play’d at the head of the association, marching two and two,

(They go to guard some corpse—the flag-tops are draped with black muslin.) 

I hear the violoncello (’tis the young man’s heart’s complaint;) 
I hear the key’d cornet—it glides qu...Read more of this...

The Blue Scarf

...f marble, and a diapered, sun-flickered pavement.
Rose-leaves blow and patter against it. Below the stone 
steps a lute tinkles.
A jar of green jade throws its shadow half over the floor. A 
big-bellied
Frog hops through the sunlight and plops in the gold-bubbled water 
of a basin,
Sunk in the black and white marble. The west wind has 
lifted a scarf
On the seat close beside me, the blue of it is a violent outrage 
of colour.
She draws it more closely about her, and it ripple...Read more of this...

The sky has unfolded into night

...ir and on the lakes of the friendly countryside, that there is anguish in the fall from a reed of a drop of water, that tinkles and then is silent in the water.
But I have your hands between mine and your steadfast eyes that hold me so gently with their earnestness; and I feel that you are so much at peace with everything that nothing, not even a fleeting suspicion of fear, will overcast, be it but for a moment, the holy trust that sleeps in us as an infant rests....Read more of this...

The Tree of Scarlet Berries

...The rain gullies the garden paths
And tinkles on the broad sides of grass blades.
A tree, at the end of my arm, is hazy with mist.
Even so, I can see that it has red berries,
A scarlet fruit,
Filmed over with moisture.
It seems as though the rain,
Dripping from it,
Should be tinged with colour.
I desire the berries,
But, in the mist, I only scratch my hand on the thorns.
Probably, too, they are ...Read more of this...

To The Chapel Bell

...triot's meeds,
Am now enforst a far unfitter task
For cap and gown to leave my minstrel weeds,"
For yon dull noise that tinkles on the air
Bids me lay by the lyre and go to morning prayer.

Oh how I hate the sound! it is the Knell,
That still a requiem tolls to Comfort's hour;
And loth am I, at Superstition's bell,
To quit or Morpheus or the Muses bower.
Better to lie and dose, than gape amain,
Hearing still mumbled o'er, the same eternal strain.

Thou tedious herald of more ...Read more of this...
