Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFG HCI JIKFI LMINOP FGushing from the mouths of stone men | A |
To spread at ease under the sky | B |
In granite lipped basins | C |
Where iris dabble their feet | D |
And rustle to a passing wind | E |
The water fills the garden with its rushing | F |
In the midst of the quiet of close clipped lawns | G |

Damp smell the ferns in tunnels of stone | H |
Where trickle and plash the fountains | C |
Marble fountains yellowed with much water | I |

Splashing down moss tarnished steps | J |
It falls the water | I |
And the air is throbbing with it | K |
With its gurgling and running | F |
With its leaping and deep cool murmur | I |
- | |
And I wished for night and you | L |
I wanted to see you in the swimming pool | M |
White and shining in the silver flecked water | I |
While the moon rode over the garden | N |
High in the arch of night | O |
And the scent of the lilacs was heavy with stillness | P |
- | |
Night and the water and you in your whiteness bathing | F |
