A splendid sun betwixt the trees	A
Long spikes of flame did shoot	B
When turning to the fragrant South	C
With longing eyes and burning mouth	C
I stretched a hand athwart the drouth	C
And plucked at cooling fruit	B
	-
So thirst was quenched and hastening on	D
With strength returned to me	E
I set my face against the noon	F
And reached a denser forest soon	F
Which dipped into a still lagoon	F
Hard by the sooming sea	E
	-
All day the ocean beat on bar	G
And bank of gleaming sand	H
Yet that lone pool was always mild	I
It never moved when waves were wild	I
But slumbered like a quiet child	I
Upon the lap of land	H
	-
And when I rested on the brink	J
Amongst the fallen flowers	K
I lay in calm no leaves were stirred	L
By breath of wind or wing of bird	L
It was so still you might have heard	L
The footfalls of the hours	K
	-
Faint slumbrous scents of roses filled	M
The air which covered me	E
My words were low she loved them so	N
In Eden vales such odours blow	N
How strange it is that roses grow	N
So near the shores of Sea	E
	-
A sweeter fragrance never came	O
Across the Fields of Yore	P
And when I said we here would dwell	Q
A low voice on the silence fell	Q
Ah if you loved the roses well	Q
You loved Aileen the more Ay that I did and now would turn	R
And fall and worship her	S
But Oh you dwell so far so high	T
One cannot reach though he may try	T
The Morning land and Jasper sky	T
The balmy hills of Myrrh	S
	-
Why vex me with delicious hints	U
Of fairest face and rarest blooms	V
You Spirit of a darling Dream	W
Which links itself with every theme	W
And thought of mine by surf or stream	W
In glens or caverned glooms	V
	-
She said thy wishes led me down	X
From amaranthine bowers	V
And since my face was haunting thee	E
With roses dear which used to be	E
They all have hither followed me	E
The scents and shapes of flowers	V
	-
Then stay mine own evangel stay	Y
Or going take me too	Z
But let me sojourn by your side	A2
If here we dwell or there abide	A2
It matters not I madly cried	A2
I only care for you	Z
	-
Oh glittering Form that would not stay	Y
Oh sudden sighing breeze	V
A fainting rainbow dropped below	N
Far gleaming peaks and walls of snow	N
And there a weary way I go	N
Towards the Sunrise seas	V
