Dim vales and shadowy floodsA
And cloudy looking woodsB
Whose forms we can't discoverC
For the tears that drip all overC
Huge moons there wax and waneD
Again again againE
Every moment of the nightF
Forever changing placesG
And they put out the star lightF
With the breath from their pale facesG
About twelve by the moon dialH
One more filmy than the restI
A kind which upon trialH
They have found to be the bestI
Comes down still down and downJ
With its centre on the crownJ
Of a mountain's eminenceK
While its wide circumferenceK
In easy drapery fallsL
Over hamlets over hallsL
Wherever they may beM
O'er the strange woods o'er the seaM
Over spirits on the wingN
Over every drowsy thingN
And buries them up quiteF
In a labyrinth of lightF
And then how deep O deepO
Is the passion of their sleepO
In the morning they ariseP
And their moony coveringN
Is soaring in the skiesP
With the tempests as they tossQ
Like almost any thingN
Or a yellow AlbatrossR
They use that moon no moreS
For the same end as beforeS
Videlicet a tentT
Which I think extravagantU
Its atomies howeverC
Into a shower disseverC
Of which those butterfliesP
Of Earth who seek the skiesP
And so come down againE
Never contented thingN
Have brought a specimenV
Upon their quivering wingsW
