Of that dear vale where you and I have lain	A
Scanning the mysteries of life and death	B
I dreamed though how impassable the space	C
Of time between the present and the past	D
This was the vision that possessed my mind	E
I thought the weird and gusty days of March	F
Had eased themselves in melody and peace	G
Pale lights swift shadows lucent stalks clear streams	H
Cool rosy eves behind the penciled mesh	I
Of hazel thickets and the huge feathered boughs	J
Of walnut trees stretched singing to the blast	D
And the first pleasantries of sheep and kine	A
The cautioned twitterings of hidden birds	K
The flight of geese among the scattered clouds	L
Night's weeping stars and all the pageantries	L
Of awakened life had blossomed into May	M
Whilst she with trailing violets in her hair	N
Blew music from the stops of watery stems	L
And swept the grasses with her viewless robes	L
Which dreaming men thought voices dreaming still	O
Now as I lay in vision by the stream	P
That flows amidst our well beloved vale	Q
I looked throughout the vista stretched between	A
Two ranging hills one meadowed rich in grass	L
The other wooded thick and quite obscure	R
With overgrowth rank in the luxury	S
Of all wild places but ever growing sparse	L
Of trees or saplings on the sudden slope	T
That met the grassy level of the vale	Q
But still within the shadow of those woods	L
Which sprinkled all beneath with fragrant dew	U
There grew all flowers which tempted little paths	L
Between them up and on into the wood	V
Here as the sun had left his midday peak	W
The incommunicable blue of heaven blent	V
With his fierce splendor filling all the air	N
With softened glory while the pasturage	X
Trembled with color of the poppy blooms	L
Shook by the steps of the swift sandaled wind	V
Nor any sound beside disturbed the dream	P
Of Silence slumbering on the drowsy flowers	L
Then as I looked upon the widest space	L
Of open meadow where the sunlight fell	Y
In veils of tempered radiance I saw	L
The form of one who had escaped the care	N
And equal dullness of our common day	V
For like a bright mist rising from the earth	Z
He made appearance growing more distinct	V
Until I saw the stole likewise the lyre	A2
Grasped by the fingers of the modeled hand	V
Yea I did see the glory of his hair	N
Against the deep green bay leaves filleting	W
The ungathered locks And so throughout the vale	Q
His figure stood distinct and his own shade	V
Was the sole shadow Deeming this approach	B2
Augur of good as if in hidden ways	L
Of loveliness the gods do still appear	C2
The counselors of men and even where	N
Wonder and meditation wooed us oft	V
I cried Apollo and his form dissolved	V
As if the nymphs of echo who took up	D2
The voice and bore it to the hollow wood	V
By that same flight had startled the great god	V
To vanishment And thereupon I woke	W
And disarrayed the figment of my thought	V
For of the very air magic with hues	L
Blent with the distant objects I had formed	V
The splendid apparition and so knew	U
It was alas a dream within a dream	P
