Excuse me – Dollie –
The Love a Child can
show – below –
Is but a Filament – I
know –
Of that Diviner – Thing –
That faints opon the face
of Noon –
And smites the Tinder
in the Sun –
And hinders – Gabriel′s Wing!
′Tis this – in Music –
hints – and sways –
And far abroad – on
¦
Summer Days –
Distils – uncertain – pain –
‘Tis This – afflicts us
in the East –
And tints the Transit
in the West –
With Harrowing – Iodine!
And tints the Transit
in the West –
With Harrowing – Iodine!
′Tis this – invites – appalls –
endows –
Flits – glimmers – proves –
dissolves –
Returns – suggests – convicts –
enchants –
Then – flings in Paradise!
