In the mildest greenest groveA
Blest by sprite or fairyB
Where the melting echoes roveA
Voices sweet and airyB
Where the streamsC
Drink the beamsC
Of the SunD
As they runD
RiverwardE
Through the swardE
A shepherd went astrayF
E'en gods have lost their wayF
-
Every bird had sought its nestE
And each flower spiritE
Dreamed of that delicious restE
Mortals ne'er inheritE
Through the treesG
Swept the breezeG
Bringing airsH
UnawaresH
Through the groveA
Until loveI
Came down upon his heartE
Refusing to departE
-
Hungrily he quaffed the strainJ
Sweeter still and clearerK
Drenched with music's mellow rainJ
Nearer nearer dearerK
-
Chains of soundE
Gently boundE
The lost YouthL
Till in soothL
He stood thereM
A prisonerK
Raised between earth and heavenD
By love's divinest leavenD
-
Was there ever such a faceN
Was it not a visionD
Had he climbed the starry spaceN
To the fields ElysianD
Through the gladeE
The milk maidE
With her pailO
To the valeO
Passed alongP
Breathing songP
Through all his ravished senseQ
To gladden his suspenseQ
-
Love is swift as hawk or hindE
Chamois like in fleetnessQ
None are lost that love can findE
Sang the maid with sweetnessQ
True in soothL
Thought the YouthL
Strong as swiftE
Love can liftE
-
Mountain weightsQ
To the gatesQ
Of the celestial skiesQ
Where all else fades and diesQ
-
Lightly flew the sunny daysQ
Joy and gladness sendingR
Life becomes a song of praiseQ
When true hearts are blendingR
Guileless truthL
Won the YouthL
Kept him thereM
A prisonerK
While dear LoveI
From aboveI
Poured down enduring dreamsQ
In calm supernal gleamsQ
