The Lilac is an ancient shrub | B |
But ancienter than that | C |
The Firmamental Lilac | D |
Upon the Hill tonight | E |
The Sun subsiding on his Course | F |
Bequeaths this final Plant | G |
To Contemplation not to Touch | H |
The Flower of Occident | I |
Of one Corolla is the West | J |
The Calyx is the Earth | K |
The Capsules burnished Seeds the Stars | L |
The Scientist of Faith | M |
His research has but just begun | N |
Above his synthesis | O |
The Flora unimpeachable | P |
To Time's Analysis | O |
Eye hath not seen may possibly | Q |
Be current with the Blind | R |
But let not Revelation | N |
By theses be detained | S |
