- | |
The quickening East climbs to yon star | B |
That cradled rocks herself in morn | C |
The liquid silver broad'ning far | B |
Dawn drencheth cliff holt down and tarn | C |
The trembling splendors gild the sky | A |
Breath'd from her tawny champion's lips | D |
The clear green dews above me lie | A |
Their lustre the dark eyelash tips | D |
Of Oriana sitting by | A |
- | |
The crested cock 'mid his stout dames | E |
Crows from the purple clover hill | F |
His glossy coat the morn enflames | E |
And all his leaping heart doth thrill | F |
His curving tail sickles the plume | G |
That rosy nods against his eye | A |
Laughs from deep beds of twinkling bloom | G |
The lilied East when wand'reth nigh | A |
My Oriana in the gloom | G |
- | |
The rooks swarm clatt'ring 'round the tow'rs | E |
The falcon jingles in the air | H |
The bursting dawn around him show'rs | E |
A clinging glory of wan glare | H |
From the green knoll the shouting hunt | I |
With swollen cheeks clangs his alarms | E |
Mayhap I hear the bristler's grunt | I |
But where my Oriana charms | E |
The wood hushed is its ev'ry haunt | J |
- | |
The willowed lake is cool with cloud | K |
Breaking and dimming into shreds | E |
Which gauze the azure thinly crowd | K |
The mist pink West with hazy threads | E |
A wild swan ruffles o'er the mere | L |
Soft as the drifting of a soul | M |
A double swan she doth appear | L |
In mirage fixed 'twixt pole and pole | M |
When Oriana singeth near | L |

- | |
Spring high into the shuddering stars | E |
O florid sunset burning gold | N |
Flash on our eyeballs lurid bars | E |
To beam them with air fires cold | N |
The blowing dingles soak with light | O |
The purple coppice hang with blaze | E |
But where we stand a meeker white | O |
Bloom on us thro' the hill's soft haze | E |
For Oriana stars the night | O |
- | |
Float from the East O silver world | P |
Unto the ocean of the West | Q |
And the foam sparkles upward hurled | P |
That fringe the twilight's surging crest | Q |
Snatch up and gather 'round thy brow | R |
In lustrous twine of rosy heat | S |
And rain on us its starry glow | T |
O fragment of the evetide's sheet | S |
And Oriana's eyes o'erflow | T |
- | |
O courting cricket with thy pipe | U |
Now shrill true love thro' the warm grain | C |
O feathered buds that nodding stripe | U |
The blue glen's night sigh love again | C |
Thou glimmering bird that aye doth wail | T |
From some wind wavered branch of snow | T |
Sweep down the moonlit hay sweet dale | T |
Thy bubbled anguish swooning low | T |
For Oriana walks the vale | T |
- | |
The moon comes sowing all the eve | V |
With myriad star grains of her light | O |
The torrent on the crag doth grieve | V |
The glittering lake is smooth with night | O |
O mellow lights that o'er us slide | W |
O wrinkled woods that ridge the steep | X |
O bearded stems that billowing glide | W |
With laughing night dews happy weep | X |
For Oriana'll be my bride | W |
