Subtly conscious all awake	A
Let us clear our eyes and break	A
Through the cloudy chrysalis	B
See the wonder as it is	C
Down a narrow alley blind	D
Touch and vision heart and mind	D
Turned sharply inward still we plod	E
Till the calmly smiling god	E
Leaves us and our spirits grow	F
More thin more acrid as we go	F
Creeping by the sullen wall	G
We forego the power to see	H
The threads that bind us to the All	G
God or the Immensity	E
Whereof on the eternal road	E
Man is but a passing mode	E
	-
Too blind we are too little see	H
Of the magic pageantry	H
Every minute every hour	I
From the cloudflake to the flower	I
Forever old forever strange	J
Issuing in perpetual change	J
From the rainbow gates of Time	K
	-
But he who through this common air	L
Surely knows the great and fair	L
What is lovely what sublime	K
Becomes in an increasing span	M
One with earth and one with man	M
One despite these mortal scars	N
With the planets and the stars	N
And Nature from her holy place	O
Bending with unveiled face	O
Fills him in her divine employ	P
With her own majestic joy	P
	-
Up the fielded slopes at morn	Q
Where light wefts of shadow pass	R
Films upon the bending corn	Q
I shall sweep the purple grass	R
Sun crowned heights and mossy woods	S
And the outer solitudes	S
Mountain valleys dim with pine	T
Shall be home and haunt of mine	T
I shall search in crannied hollows	S
Where the sunlight scarcely follows	S
And the secret forest brook	U
Murmurs and from nook to nook	U
Forever downward curls and cools	S
Frothing in the bouldered pools	S
	-
Many a noon shall find me laid	E
In the pungent balsam shade	E
Where sharp breezes spring and shiver	I
On some deep rough coasted river	I
And the plangent waters come	V
Amber hued and streaked with foam	W
Where beneath the sunburnt hills	S
All day long the crowded mills	S
With remorseless champ and scream	X
Overlord the sluicing stream	X
And the rapids' iron roar	Y
Hammers at the forest's core	Y
Where corded rafts creep slowly on	Z
Glittering in the noonday sun	A2
And the tawny river dogs	S
Shepherding the branded logs	S
Bind and heave with cadenced cry	B2
Where the blackened tugs go by	B2
Panting hard and straining slow	F
Laboring at the weighty tow	F
Flat nosed barges all in trim	C2
Creeping in long cumbrous line	T
Loaded to the water's brim	C2
With the clean cool scented pine	T
	-
Perhaps in some low meadow land	E
Stretching wide on either hand	E
I shall see the belted bees	S
Rocking with the tricksy breeze	S
In the spired meadow sweet	E
Or with eager trampling feet	E
Burrowing in the boneset blooms	S
Treading out the dry perfumes	S
Where sun hot hay fields newly mown	T
Climb the hillside ruddy brown	T
I shall see the haymakers	S
While the noonday scarcely stirs	S
Brown of neck and booted gray	D2
Tossing up the rustling hay	D2
While the hay racks bend and rock	E2
As they take each scented cock	E2
Jolting over dip and rise	S
And the wavering butterflies	S
O'er the spaces brown and bare	L
Light and wander here and there	L
	-
I shall stray by many a stream	X
Where the half shut lilies gleam	X
Napping out the sultry days	S
In the quiet secluded bays	S
Where the tasseled rushes tower	I
O'er the purple pickerel flower	I
And the floating dragon fly	B2
Azure glint and crystal gleam	X
Watches o'er the burnished stream	X
With his eye of ebony	T
Where the bull frog lolls at rest	E
On his float of lily leaves	S
That the swaying water weaves	S
And distends his yellow breast	E
Lowing out from shore to shore	Y
With a hollow vibrant roar	Y
Where the softest wind that blows	S
As it lightly comes and goes	S
O'er the jungled river meads	S
Stirs a whisper in the reeds	S
And wakes the crowded bull rushes	S
From their stately reveries	S
Flashing through their long leaved hordes	S
Like a brandishing of swords	S
There too the frost like arrow flowers	S
Tremble to the golden core	Y
Children of enchanted hours	S
Whom the rustling river bore	Y
In the night's bewildered noon	T
Woven of water and the moon	T
	-
I shall hear the grasshoppers	S
From the parched grass rehearse	S
And with drowsy note prolong	F2
Evermore the same thin song	F2
I shall hear the crickets tell	G2
Stories by the humming well	G2
And mark the locust with quaint eyes	S
Caper in his cloak of gray	D2
Like a jester in disguise	S
Rattling by the dusty way	D2
	-
I shall dream by upland fences	S
Where the season's wealth condenses	S
Over many a weedy wreck	H2
Wild uncared for desert places	S
That sovereign Beauty loves to deck	H2
With her softest dearest graces	S
There the long year dreams in quiet	E
And the summer's strength runs riot	E
Shall I not remember these	S
Deep in winter reveries	S
Berried brier and thistle bloom	I2
And milkweed with its dense perfume	I2
Slender vervain towering up	J2
In a many branched cup	J2
Like a candlestick each spire	K2
Kindled with a violet fire	I
Matted creepers and wild cherries	S
Purple bunched elderberries	S
And on scanty plots of sod	E
Groves of branchy goldenrod	E
	-
What though autumn mornings now	T
Winterward with glittering brow	T
Stiffen in the silver grass	S
And what though robins flock and pass	S
With subdued and sober call	G
To the old year's funeral	L2
Though October's crimson leaves	S
Rustle at the gusty door	Y
And the tempest round the eaves	S
Alternate with pipe and roar	Y
I sit as erst unharmed secure	M2
Conscious that my store is sure	M2
Whatsoe'er the fenced fields	S
Or the untilled forest yields	S
Of unhurt remembrances	S
Or thoughts far glimpsed half followed these	S
I have reaped and laid away	D2
A treasure of unwinnowed grain	T
To the garner packed and gray	D2
Gathered without toil or strain	T
	-
And when the darker days shall come	V
And the fields are white and dumb	V
When our fires are half in vain	T
And the crystal starlight weaves	S
Mockeries of summer leaves	S
Pictured on the icy pane	T
When the high aurora gleams	S
Far above the Arctic streams	S
Like a line of shifting spears	S
And the broad pine circled meres	S
Glimmering in that spectral light	E
Thunder through the northern night	E
Then within the bolted door	Y
I shall con my summer store	Y
Though the fences scarcely show	F
Black above the drifted snow	F
Though the icy sweeping wind	E
Whistle in the empty tree	T
Safe within the sheltered mind	E
I shall feed on memory	T
	-
Yet across the windy night	E
Comes upon its wings a cry	B2
Fashioned forms and modes take flight	E
And a vision sad and high	B2
Of the laboring world down there	L
Where the lights burn red and warm	N2
Pricks my soul with sudden stare	L
Glowing through the veils of storm	N2
In the city yonder sleep	O2
Those who smile and those who weep	O2
Those whose lips are set with care	L
Those whose brows are smooth and fair	L
Mourners whom the dawning light	E
Shall grapple with an old distress	S
Lovers folded at midnight	E
In their bridal happiness	S
Pale watchers by beloved beds	S
Fallen a drowse with nodding heads	S
Whom sleep captured by surprise	S
With the circles round their eyes	S
Maidens with quiet taken breath	P2
Dreaming of enchanted bowers	S
Old men with the mask of death	P2
Little children soft as flowers	S
Those who wake wild eyed and start	E
In some madness of the heart	E
Those whose lips and brows of stone	T
Evil thoughts have graven upon	T
Shade by shade and line by line	T
Refashioning what was once divine	T
	-
All these sleep and through the night	E
Comes a passion and a cry	B2
With a blind sorrow and a might	E
I know not whence I know not why	B2
A something I cannot control	Q2
A nameless hunger of the soul	Q2
It holds me fast In vain in vain	T
I remember how of old	E
I saw the ruddy race of men	T
Through the glittering world outrolled	E
A gay smiling multitude	E
All immortal all divine	T
Treading in a wreathed line	T
By a pathway through a wood	E
